I have to advise you that from the pension in the Revolutionary War

H. Burton born in Mecklenburg County, Va] was a resident and enlisted 
in Caswell County, North Carolina June 12, 1778 and served until September
as a private in Captain Robert Moore's North Carolina Company.

On November 5, 1778 he re-enlisted and served until August 1779 as a 
private in Captain Robert Moore's Company, Colonel Dixon's North
Carolina Regiment.

He enlisted in September 1780 and served three months as a private, and
as a substitute for his brother David Halliberton, in Captain Falkner's
North Carolina Company.

He enlisted in February 1781 and served four weeks as a private in
Captain George Moore's Company, Colonel William Moore's North Carolina
Regiment and was at Pyle's Defeat.

He was allowed pension on his application executed August 20, 1832 while
