Revwar - Pension Captain David Caldwell's Company of Colonel Francis Locke's Regiment, NC Militia


Personally appeared before me William Kinsey an acting justice of the peace in 
and for said county Daniel McCollum whose name appears in the foregoing 
declaration made the 2nd day of October 1839 and amends said declaration by 
stating on oath that he was not able from bodily infirmity to appear in court 
on the day above written; and that he is not able now to attend; and he 
further swears that he has no other means in his power of proving his Services 
in the Revolutionary War only by his own oath; and he saith from old age and 
the consequent loss of memory that he cannot precisely recollect the time; but 
that he did serve as a private in the war from the year 1776 to the year 1783 
different tours amounting in all to not less than eleven months as stated in 
the foregoing declaration; and he further states on oath that he did make 
application shortly after the law was passed for the benefit of the act of 
June 7th 1832, but that the declaration was returned with some objections and 
was mislaid by the agent so that he could not obtain it which was the reason 
of the delay.  Sworn to and subscribed this 30th day of January 1840 before me.
