That he entered the service of the United States under the following named officers, and served as herein stated
Said applicant lived in the county of Granville, State of North Carolina, and entered into the Militia service of the United States, under the command of Captain William Gilliam, of Colonel William Moore's Regiment; that a few days subsequent to enrolling, said applicant was appointed Lieutenant of said company, and served a tour of three months duty. That during said tour, said company marched from Granville to Hillsborough; thence to Salisbury; thence by Charlotte to the Wax Saw Creek; thence to the old nation ford on the Catawba. Thence said company returned; and on their return, between Charlotte and

Salisbury, the said company took charge of a body of prisoners, consisting of British, Hessians and Tories, and conducted them to Salisbury. Said applicant states that Capt. William Gilliam's company, to which he belonged, was stationed at New Providence, at the time Col. Washington took Col. Royster; and said applicant saw Washington's company marching and returning therefrom. The above tour of duty commenced on the 15 th day of September 1780, and terminated the 14 th day of December 1780; as by the Certificate of Mr. Moore, for John Butler Brig. Genl., herewith forwarded will appear. Applicant states that as often as three different terms, he joined the Militia of the County of Granville, and marched each time in the service, but was not in any engagement and in one of those during this tour applicant marched. marched went to the Old Nation ford on the Catawba, to watch the movements of the British. For these services applicant has no written discharge, nor ever had, he was discharged verbally. Applicant believes that the entire period in which he was in actual service, would amount to about six months. Applicant states, that himself and one John Mitchell gave their Bond, dated June 12 th 1781, to one George Worsh for the sum of 230 £, in consideration of his becoming a substitute for said applicant and others, for the term of eighteen months; which term

the said Marsh served; and applicant, and others paid to him 115 £, out of their private funds, and furnished him with clothing. Applicant states, that the original discharge and commission are now in the hands of Col. Alexander Buckner, Senator to Congress, to whom they were forwarded 14 th day of February 1832, then in Washington City, with a view of obtaining relief from Congress, & to whom, if necessary application can be made, and said originals procured. Applicant states that he knows of no person whose testimony he can procure, who can testify to his service.
He hereby relinquishes every claim whatever to a pension or annuity except the present, and declares that his name is not on the pension roll of any state.
Sworn to, and subscribed the day and year aforesaid.

Isaac Harrison W. 10089
Honorable John J. McSwain, House of Representatives.
My dear Mr. McSwain:
In response to your letter of the twenty-eighth ultimo and the enclosed letter of Mrs. Mary W. Carter of 704 Arlington Avenue, Greenville, S.C., I have the honor to advise you, that this Bureau has no general genealogical data in its files, no records of military services rendered in the colonies before the War of the Revolution and only the records of those sol- diers of the Revolution, on account of whose services, claims for pension and bounty land have been made.
A careful search of the Revolutionary War records fails to show claims for pension, or bounty land on file on account of the services of Samuel Lockhart, Adam Lock- hart, Andrew Harrison, John Daniel and Joseph Woodruff, described by Mrs. Carter.
of Granville Co NC near Anne Williams 1751-1817 - Surry Co NC - Spartanburg Co SC
In order to make a proper search of said records for any particular soldiers named John, James and Richard Harrison, some of the following data is essential in

regard to each: approximate dates of birth and death, places of residence at enlistment and after service and name of State Troops in which service was rendered.
You are herewith furnished the history of Isham Harrison who married Amy Gillam.
From the papers in the Revolutionary War pension claim, W. 10089, it appears that Isham Harrison was born in Virginia, place not stated, in 1760.
While living in Granville County, N. C., he was appointed on September 15, 1780, Lieutenant of Captain William Gillam's Company, Colonel William Moore's North Carolina Regiment and was discharged December 14, 1780.
He was drafted in September 1781, and served three months as a private in Captain Elijah Mitchell's, or Captain Reuben Moss' Company, under Colonels Joseph Taylor and Thomas Satterwhite in the Granville County, N. C. Militia.
He was allowed pension on his application executed August 14, 1832, while living in Saint Michael's Township, Madison County, Missouri and he died in that county September 4, 1835.

He married June 22, 1783, in Granville County, N. C., Amy Gillam. She was allowed pension on her application executed May 28, 1845, while living in Madison County, Missouri. The names of their parents are not given, nor is it stated whether they had children, or brothers and sisters.
Very truly yours,
WINFIELD SCOTT, Commissioner.

On this 26 th day of August A. D. 1833, at a Term of the County Court within and for the County of Madison aforesaid, personally appeared in open court, Isham Harrison, and made the following Declaration, in order to amend his Original Declaration to obtain a pension.
Said applicant states that he was born in the State of Virginia, and raised in Granville county North Carolina, that at about the age of twenty in the year 1780, he was drafted as a private to supply a militia draft, or call for a draft made on the Militia of said county for three months, and was first mustered into service at Granville, in the company commanded by Captain William Gilliam, in a Regiment or Battalion commanded by Col William Moore, the general officer commanding in that department or part of the country was Brig. Genl John Butler. Not more than three days after applicant was mustered into service he was appointed Lieutenant of said Gilliam's Company, and served said time as such - a copy of which appointment is herewith forwarded. The services or march during this time have been noted in the Original Declaration; but applicant here adds that during this time the Troops marched to the old nation ford on the Catawba, which appears to be set down as a part of subsequent services in the original declaration.
On the next year, being 1781, and in the month of September  October , for the purpose of supplying an other call for a draft made on the militia of said county for three months, said applicant was again drafted for three months, and was mustered into service, as a private, at Granville courthouse in a company commanded by Captain Elijah Mitchell or Reuben Moss, but which one from the frequent changes applicant does not now, by reason of the lapse of time now certainly recollect. The field officers in command were Joseph Taylor and Thos. Satterwhite. Applicant served out his three months in continued duty, consisting in marches throughout the country to suppress the Tories & disaffected, on the expiration of which time applicant was discharged or dismissed verbally. During this time Cornwallis was taken prisoner.
Said applicant removed to this county 1816, and from the great distance he now resides from the place of his services, he cannot prove the services of the last three months time, and his documentary evidence is mentioned in original declaration. His relinquishment is made in original declaration.
And to the interrogatories prescribed by the War department, & put by the Court, the said Isham Harrison answers and says, as follows, 1 st I was born in the State of Virginia, and in the year 1760 2 nd I have no record of my age, nor ever had - I do not believe

there ever was any record made of it.
4 th I belonged to the Militia which were clapped, and there was a call for a draft to be made out of the class to which I belonged, and on that call I was drafted for three months - and on a second call for a draft I was also drafted for three months, and served each draft -
5 th I was acquainted with Capt. William Gilliam, Col. William Moore & Gen. John Butler, and also with Col. Taylor & Satterwhite & am also acquainted with William Anthony & Thos. Cooper Justices of this Court, William M. Newberry Clerk of this & the Circuit Courts Micajah Stone Sheriff, John Matthews Member of the Senate within this State and Theodore F. Tong member of the House of Representatives Caleb Cox Justice of the Peace and many other citizens to whom reference can be had to speak respecting my credibility for veracity. Sworn to and subscribed the day and year aforesaid.

And the said Court do hereby declare their opinion, after after the investigation of the matter in the said amended declaration, together with the witnesses produced, and after again putting the interrogatories prescribed by the War Department, that the above named Isham Harrison the applicant, was a Revolutionary soldier, and served as he states. And it is ordered by the Court, that the above Declaration as sworn to, be annexed to, and made a part and parcel of the Original declaration herein filed, and that the same be properly certified under the seal of this Court, and forwarded to the War Department.
