Gentlemen: On Oct. 14, 1919 you sent to Miss Gertrude Reynolds of Cedar Falls, Ia., a certified record of the Rev. War services of Daniel Hurlbatt. This states he had children: Miles Hurlbatt aged 51 in 1851, and Betsey Young aged 57 years.
I am writing to see if there could possibly be any mistake in copying these numbers. A grandson of Betsey Young who is 80 yrs. old writes me that he knew her, and that she was 87 in 1851 and that she lived to be over 70 years old.
I will appreciate very much the favor of
