State of Kentucky
On this day personally appeared before me a justice of the peace in and for the said County aforesaid Janet McClure a resident of the county of Scott, state of
Kentucky aged eighty five years, who being unable by reason of bodily infirmity to appear in court being duly sworn according to law doth on her oath make the
following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the provision made by the act of Congress passed July 4, 1836.  That she is the widow of Thomas McClure,
who was a soldier on the Virginia Line during the War of the Revolution.  In consequence of her great age and loss of memory she is unable to specify the particular
period of his service, but do well know he was in the service more than three years and was in various battles and was in the battle fought at Guilford courthouse
South Carolina and was in the engagement under Captain Morrow at the time he was stationed in battle and in various other engagements during the war of the
revolution.  Many of the circumstances, which transcribed at this great length of time she is unable to detail; and many of the papers of her husband have been lost
and destroyed and she now presents is discharged, which shows that he belonged to Captain Mills Company and Colonel Green Regiment and was honorable
discharged on the 23rd day of March 1781 and she refers to this and the records as this only evidence in her power to produce and prays that a pension may be
granted to her a poor widow of the Revolution, who husband has spent the prime of his life in the services of his country and left her poor and entirely dependent.  
She further declares she was married to the said Thomas McClure in Botetourt County, State of Virginia on the thirteenth day of March seventeen hundred and
seventy eight and the best evidence she is able to produce is her marriage is her family record of ages of her children, her first child died in infancy and she has no
record of her age, her second was her son John, who was born on the tenth day of August, Seventeen hundred and eighty.  The foregoing is her true and genuine
family record of the ages of her children all of which was born after her marriage to their father the said Thomas McClure and her husband the aforesaid Thomas
McClure died on the tenth of November eighteen hundred and eighteen and that she has remained a widow ever since her death, as will more fully appear by
reference to the proof hereto annexed.  Given under my hand this 27 day of December 1838
