Part two of the Deposition

Application for certificate of Revolutionary Services made by a son of the party who rendered the service.

State of New York
County of Seneca, Town of Ovid

The Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is hereby requested to furnish evidence from the Rolls in his office, of the service of my late father Leonard Hoar in the war of the Revolution. He was probably a native of the town of Brimfield where he was married in 1765. During a part of the revolution he resided there, also he resided in Leichester during the revolution, Worchester County, Massachusetts. He enlisted from the town of Brimfield, or Leichester in the County of Worchester, State of Massachusetts. In the first part of the war, probably spring of '75 went to Boston, can not name his officers in the Regiment.

The most that is recollected is that he went to Boston in the early part of the war, probably Spring of 1775-was called to the North Ticonderoga and Crown Point, was in the battle of White Plains, had one tour up the Mohawk in the State of New York, was stationed some time at Fort Stanwick, was at West Point and New Jersey, and in service four or five years, and probably the years from 1780 to Oct. 1783. The son recollects of his father returning in Oct. 1783 after an absence of two or three years, probably as a private or it may be as a non commissioned officer.
