That she is the widow of Charles Headle, who, in the time of the war of the revolution, was a resident of Sterling in the county of Worcester and state of Massachusetts, and who, as she believes, took an active part, as a private, in the war of the Revolution, in the Massachusetts Line; that she has frequently heard her said husband speak of being in the army of the Revolution, but she does not now remember, if he ever told her, the duration of his services, or what part part of the war he was out, or to what Regt. or Corps, he belonged; that she has no documentary evidence of his services, and knows of no person who served with him.
She also declares that she was married to the said Charles Headle, at Jeffery in the state of New Hampshire, on the seventh day of December, in the year seventeen hundred and eighty, her former name being Phebe Slack; that her husband, the aforesaid Charles Headle died at Grafton, in the state of Vermont, on the 26 th day of January, in the year eighteen hundred and two; that she was not married to him prior to his leaving the service, but the marriage took place previous to the first of January, seventeen hundred and ninety four, viz. at the time above stated.
She further declares, that after the death of the husband afore- said, she was married to Asa Green on the fifteenth day of Nov- ember, in the year eighteen hundred and thirty; that he died on the sixteenth day of September, in the year eighteen hundred and forty two, and that she is still a widow.

I, Rufus Headle of Cavendish in the County of Windsor and state of Vermont, aged sixty two years, being duly sworn, do depose and say, that I am the oldest son of Charles Headle and Phebe Headle; that I have often heard my said Father speak of having been a Private in the War of the Revolution, but I cannot now tell, if I ever understood, to what Regt. or Corps he belonged, nor can I tell the duration of his service, the names of his Officers, or the years in which he served; I further say that my said Father the said Charles Headle died at Grafton in the state of Vermont, in January in the year eighteen hundred and two, and that my Mother, the said Phebe Headle, continued the widow of the said Charles Headle until the fall of the year eighteen hundred and thirty, when she was married to Asa Green, who died at Plymouth in September last, and the said Phebe has remained a widow ever since that period. And I further say, that from my earliest recollection up to the death of my said Father, they the said Charles and Phebe constantly lived together in the relation of Husband and Wife, and I never doubted, nor do I now doubt but that they were legally married.
