GEORGE L. RIFENBURGH 50 STATE ST., ALBANY, N. Y.
Albany, N. Y., October 13th, 1917.
Pension Commissioner, Washington, D.C., Dear Sir:-
I am writing to you for certain facts of a military nature, touching one Timothy Hubbard, of Haddam, Connecticut, who was a soldier in the Revolutionary War. This man was born at Haddam, aforesaid in 1734, and served at different times in said war. I think he joined at one time a company forming in an adjoining town to Haddam. Later, and after the close of the war, he moved to New Hampshire, where he was drawing a pension in 1818, as the book Connecticut Men in the Revolution , shows. I am trying to ascertain, as nearly as possible, the date and place of his death. I assume, as he was a pensioner, that your office records would show the time when the pension stopped, and probably might have some other facts showing the date and place of death.
Will you please give me such facts as the office discloses and also any other facts of record in your office concerning this man in any way, as
date of marriage, &c., if you might by chance, have the same.
Yours &c.,
George L. Rifenburgh 50 State St., Albany, N.Y.

Timothy Hibbard S-444-27
Sir:
In response to your letter dated the thirteenth instant, you are advised that a careful search of the Revolutionary War records of this Bureau, fails to afford any information in regard to any soldier named Timothy H ubbard.
It is proper to add, that Timothy Hubbard erroneously recorded on page 638 of "Connecticut Men in the Revolution", is Timothy H ibbard recorded in same volume page 195, who was allowed pension on his application executed April 9, 1818, at which time he was a resident of Bath, Grafton County, New Hampshire, and sixty-one years of age.
As this soldier's name was Hibbard, and he was born about 1757 , you will see that he is not identical with the subject of your inquiry, Timothy H ubbard, born in 1734 .
Very respectfully,
[Signature]
Commissioner.
