On this twenty first day of December, one thousand eight hundred and fifty 
personally appeared before me, David E. McCurry, a justice of the peace in and 
for said county and State, John Cox, aged forty eight years, a resident of St. 
Clair county in the State of Alabama, who being duly sworn according to law 
declares that he is the identical John Cox who was a private in the company 
commanded by Captain George W. Patrick in the 1st Battalion and fourth Regiment 
of Alabama Volunteers commanded by Colonel John N. H. Acklen and Lt. Col. L. G. 
McMillin in the Creek Indian War in the year of our Lord one thousand eight 
hundred and thirty six, that he volunteered in St. Clair County, Alabama on or 
about the 10th day of June 1836 and was mustered into service at or near 
Tuskegee in said State on the nineteenth day of June 1936 for the term of six 
months and continued in active service in said war for the term of more than

purpose of obtaining the bounty land to which he may be entitled under the "act
