Lynchburg
March 16th 1848
Dear Sir,
I have received your communication of the 12th instant desiring such information as I may possess “concerning the service of Edward Garland, of Albemarle, in the war of the Revolution.” and have to say - that I was at the period, to which you refer, too young to rely with any thing like trust, on my recollection of occurrences so far back - there can be no doubt, that my Uncle Edward, was in the military services of the Country during the revolutionary struggle, it being notorious, and often mentioned in the family of my Grandfather, with whom I resided, as well as the common report of the country - that four, at least, of my Grandfathers sons, to wit, my Uncles’ William, John, Edward, and James, my father, performed Military service in the war of the Revolution, and this is the most strongly impressed on my mind, because I distinctly recollect the death of my father in the Public service at the Albemarle Barracks - but have no recollection whatever - “in what Regiment my Uncle Edward served, who he served with, or from whom you would be likely to get any information” - I never knew any Garland, by the name of Edward, in the County of Albemarle, my uncle excepted.
Yours very respectfully,
H.M. Garland
