No. 28 Highland Place, Yonkers, N.Y. Oct. 17, 1894. Hon. Hoke Smith, Secy. of the Interior, Washington, D. C. Dear Sir:
For the purpose of confirming my applica- tion for membership in the Society of the Sons of the Rev- olution, I desire to ob- tain a copy of the record of service of my grandfather, Oliver Hobbard, and my great grand father, Southwick Hobbard. They I believe enlisted at New London Conn. in the Early part of the Revolutionary

War.
I do not know that either of them accepted of any pension; but my grandmother, Elizabeth Hebbard, widow of Oliver Hebbard, received a pension for a number of years, before her death, which occurred in New York City, in 1848 or 1849. If you will kindly furnish me the information I have requested, so far as you may be able, you will oblige
Yours respectfully, Isaac N. Hebbard.

Dear Sir:-
The undersigned is very desirous of securing for genealogical and other purposes, such information as can be obtained from the pension and land warrant records of your Department, respecting the following, his direct ancestors, who were soldiers in the Revolutionary War:
1. Southwick (also called " Suthrick " and " Juthrick ") Hebberd , (perhaps variously spelled Hebard , Hebbard , Hebbert , Hibard , Hibbard , Hibbert and Hibbord ), who in 1777 was a private soldier in Captain Daniels' Company, Col. Nixons , 5th Massachusetts' Regiment, enlisting from Worcester County, and in 1781 was a private soldier in Captain Maynard's Company, Col. Brooks , 7th Massachusetts' Regiment, enlisting from Charlton; and
2. Oliver Hebberd (also, perhaps, variously spelled as above), who in 1783 was a private soldier in Col. Jackson's 3rd Massachusetts' Regiment, enlisting from Sturbridge.
I shall esteem it a great favor if you will kindly cause to be sent to me an abstract of such records, in as full detail as practicable.
Respectfully yours,
Robt W. Hebberd
