Southern Campaign, American Revolution Pension Statements & Rosters
Pension Application of Henson Day R2782, Rosanna Day, VA
Transcribed and annotated by C. Leon Harris.

[The pension application is evidently missing from the file, but the following
correspondence gives some indication of its content.]

COPY. [Typed]

War Department, Pension Office./ May 8, 1824.

Hon. J. B. Reynolds,/ H. R. [House of Representatives]

Sir:

The claim of HANSON DAY to a pension on account of revolutionary service, has
been examined. He states that he served in a regiment commanded by Col. Stark
of the Virginia line. No Colo. of that name belonged to the Virginia line of
continental troops. As the law of the 18th of March 1818, under which Mr. Day
claims, provides for those only who served on the continental establishment,
his claim cannot be allowed. His declaration will remain on the files of this
Office, agreeably to our regulations. J. L. E. [James L. Edwards, Commissioner
of Pensions]

Hardeman county, Tenn./ February 9th, 1854.

Hon. L P. Waldo [Commissioner of Pensions],

Sir:

Some years since, my husband, HENSON Day, made application to be pensioned,
which application was suspended or rejected. At the time the application was
made he was residing in Hardeman county, Tennessee, I wish you to examine the
papers filed in your office, and inform my Attorney, Geo. W. Talbot, of Spring
Creek, Madison county, Tenn., the cause of said suspension or rejection

Yours, &c.
ROSANNA DAY
