Martha H. b. 4-28-1821 d. 9-15-1897 Daniel O'REAR S31892 Georgia #26571, $33.88/year issued 19 March 1834 4 March 1834 Daniel O'REAR aged 75, states he was born in Faquier County, Va., about 1758 or 1759, according to information received from his parents. He has no record of his age. He volunteered for three months in Faquier County and served under Capt. William BLACKWELL (?), Lieut. Peter CONWAY and Col. Patrick HENRY, who was called General. They Marched 16 miles below Williamsburg and had an engagement with the enemy in which the Americans captured a small vessel called Linder (?), killed six or seven and took several prisoners. He entered the army again in January 1777 under Capt. John ASHBY, 1st. Lt. William NELSON, 2nd Lt. Nathaniel ASHBY, Ensign Isham KEITH, Orderly Sgt. Henry MOFFETT. His messmates were privates Robert BERRYMAN, Reubin BRYAN and Joseph CRUMELL (?). (Note: a list of privates with whom he served was submitted but not in file). After expiration of his first term, in January 1779 , he removed with his father's family (of which he was a member) to Wilkes County, N.C. In Sept. 1779 he enlisted there under Capt. Richard ALLEN. He enlisted again as an orderly or 1st Sgt.. under Capt. John G. LOWMAN and Col. William LYTIE. He remained in service at Charleston until that city and the army were surrendered to the enemy on 11 Feb. 1780. On the 20th day he was paroled and permitted to return home. After reaching home he volunteered again, though a prisoner on parole, to serve an indefinite length of in Capt. Martin GAMBLE'S company under Col. CLEVELAND. In the month of Oct. which he was on parole, his father's home was attacked and robbed by Tories. His discharges were all in a trunk which was stolen. He knows of no one who is living by whom he can prove his service. He continued to reside in North Carolina until about 30 odd years (ago?), he removed to Hancock County Ga., where he remained for several years, and from there to Bledsoe County Tenn., and about 11 years ago came to this place. He made an application for pension to this court in 1832, which was put in the Post Office at Winchester, but he understands it was never received in Washington.
