Dear Madam:
Reference is made to your request for the Revolutionary War record of Thomas Granger, who was born in Suffield, Connecticut, and died in 1848 or 1849, in Middlebury, Summit County, Ohio.

Sir:-
I have the honor herewith to transmit to you additional evidence in the case of Thomas Granger of Ohio, who was a pensioner under the act of Congress passed March 18, 1818, at the rate of 96 dollars per annum, and claim that his son William Granger is entitled to receive under the Act of June 7, 1832, an increase to the rate of 108 dollars per annum, from March 4 th 1831 to Jan. 4, 1849, when the said Thomas Granger died, he having served for more than two years as a Fife Major in the Revolutionary War.
It will be seen by the proofs herewith presented that the said Thomas Granger was in 1780 a Fife Major, and by reference to his Declaration and the proofs now on file in the Pension Office it will be seen that he served until the close of the war, having been discharged in June 1783, consequently he was entitled under the Act of June 7, 1832 to a pension at the rate of 108 dollars per annum which pension his son the said William Granger now claims.
I am Yours
