Blaisdells).
Please put this affidavit and letter into the files of this case and communicate the results to me.
I am truly yours,
Stephen Thomas
Honorable L P. Waldo
Court of Pensions
Washington, DC
I Jonathan P. Blaisdell of Albany in the County of Orleans and State of Vermont of lawful age depose, testify and say that while I was a child under two years of age my parents gave me to Jonathan Pettigill and Susanna, his wife, who adopted me as their own child and with whom I lived constantly till he died. The first portion of this time he resided in Greensboro, Vermont and the latter in Craftsbury, where he died. I was over twenty one years old when he died which was more than thirty years ago. I often heard him speak of being n the United States service and will remember seeing a scar on the calf of his leg which he said was a wound made by a 'shot' in some battle which he was in. He told me that he was in the service between seven and eight years and served to the close of the war of the revolution. I remember his telling of being in several battles, especially at the taking of Burgoyne, and I have no doubt whatever that all his representations of these matters were true. I well remember his speaking of his service in Col. Cilley regiment. He told me that he served one summer as a volunteer upon half rations under General Sullivan in a campaign against the New York Indians, and I have now in my possession a brooch which he gave me and which he said he took from an Indian in that campaign. I was present at his decease and attended his funeral and took charge of the affairs of his widow until her marriage with Solomon Bartlett of Plainfield, Vermont. She then resided with Mr. Bartlett till his death some ten or twelve years ago, since which time she has remained a widow and lived in the family of Levi Bartlett of said Plainfield. She was Susanna Baker of Pembrook New Hampshire previous to her marriage with Mr. Pettingill. I have heretofore had some acquaintance with some of her sisters and their children. ___ I say not.
Jon. P. Blaisdell
There is a death record also in Craftsbury for a Jonathan Pettingall Mar. 13, 1819. No other info on record.
