Declaration of Sarah Reynolds In Order to obtain the benefits of the act of
Congress of the 7th of July 1838 and the several acts amendatory thereto.

State of Kentucky
Pulaski County S.S.

On this 17th day of November 1849 personally appeared before me George Adams a
Justice of the Peace for the County of Pulaski and State of Kentucky Sarah
Reynolds a resident of said County aged 67 years who being first duly sworn
according to Law doth on her Oath make the following declaration in order to
obtain the benefit of the act of Congress of July 7th 1838 and the several
amendatory acts thereto: viz:

That she is now a Widow. Her maiden name was Sarah Gorden. She then resided in
Caswell County in the state of North Carolina. On the 6th of June in the year
1798 in said County of Caswell in the State of North Carolina she was in due
form of law married to William Dye. she was married by one Arch'd Samuel a
Justice of the Peace for said County of Caswell she has not in her possession
the record of the Marriage. She had some years ago a Memorandum kept in a
Bible of her marriage with said Dye but she gave that Bible to one of her sons
who moved to Missouri and she supposes took it with him - she cannot now
procure it.

(2)
She continued to be the wife of said William Dye until his death which took
place in the year 1823. after that she married Matthew Reynolds, and he died
six years ago last December and she is now a widow.

She states from her best information and which she verily believes to be true
her first husband the said William Dye was engaged in the actual service of
the U. States as a private in her Army during the Revolutionary war with
England in all more than three years - From her recollection of what he stated
about it in his life time for the two years next preceeding the close of that
war he was in the Service all the time. he resided //in// before and after the
war in Halifax County in the state of Virginia. she has often heard him tell
about the adventures of his Service in said War She recollects hearing him
state he was in General Greene's army, and was in the Battle of Guilford. She
thinks his Captains name was Thompson at the time of that Battle. She does not
now recollect any more of his officers names. She has heard him speak of the
Battle of Brandywyne but she does not remember certainly whether he was in
that Battle himself or not. she recollects hearing him and another
Revolutionary Soldier once talking about the Battle of Brandywyne - towit: a
Mr John Yeates and they both talked about the scenes of that Battle as if they
were both eye- [page] (3) -witnesses to what took place. she remembers they
described the place where the Battle commenced as being in an old field where
an old apple orchard had been turned out and that there were gullies or
streams where the blody Battle was fought that run with blood as the water
would after a shower of rain.

She remembers to have heard her husband (Wm Dye) tell about the service he
performed in augmenting Gen'l Greenes army he said he was engaged about two
weeks in marching through the Country to Gen Greene and then at night he was
marched back into the country to obtain more recruits. this was before the
battle of Guilford. at the Battle of Guilford his Captain (Thompson) was
Killed, and his Colonel was badly wounded - shot through the thigh.

Her husband the said William Dye was honourably discharged at the close of the
war. she recollects to have seen his discharge - as also a printed paper which
purported to be his oath of Allegiance these two papers were burned under the
following circumstances - The night before they started to move from
Northcarolina to Kentucky her said husband had a friend helping him to examine
his papers. they said all the papers they thought would ever be of any service
or value to him they would save and all that was considered useless they would
burn, and in assorting out his papers when they come to his discharge [page]
(4) and Oath of Allegiance it was said he had better save them. And he said
no, he had kept them about 25 years and they never had done him any good and
they were then cast into the fire with other useless papers.

She recollects hearing him state he was at the Siege of Yorktown at the close
of the war and aided in taking that place he said they labourd twenty odd days
and nights carrying forward the intrenchments and that Washington wrote a
deceptive letter designed to fall into the hands of the British and stated
[started?] the officer with it and the British took him prisoner and examined
the letter and were deceived by it as Washington designed.

Her husband stated he was present after the surrender of Cornwallis and saw
that officer come out and surrender his sword to Washington. he said
Cornwallis walked up to where Washington stood and stuck his sword in the
ground near Washington. Washington took the sword and turned it about and
looked at it and then handed it back to Cornwallis again.

She resides some ten miles from the Courthouse of her county where the courts
are held and she could not in justice to herself go to the Courthouse she is
afflicted with Phthysick so that it would endanger her to venture to make the
trip to the Courthouse of her county.

Dr Sir,

The declaration of Mrs Sarah Reynolds an applicant for a Pension, as the Widow

were forwarded to the War Dep some 18 Mo' or two years ago - they are on file
in the Pension office - the Pension was not granted upon the ground that the
proof of Marriage was not sufficient.

Enclosed herewith I forward additional Proof to the point complained of, and
respectfully ask a re-examination of the case - hoping that Mrs Reynolds has
shewn herself entitled to the benefits of the Pension Law in cases like hers
