During the War of 1812, Clayton Devin served as a Private in Captain Calland's company of Col. Linsley's regiment, Virginia militia from 31 Mar 1813 to 14 Oct 1813 when the company was dissolved.

At the close of the war he was granted 80 acres near Springfield, Missouri as payment for his services in this war. 2 BLW of 80A each in Polk County, Missouri. This parchment signed by Millard Fillmore, President, is now in the hands of Loyd Devin; who also has the family Bible. The old farmstead lies near Bolivar, Missouri and in 1937 much of the original house was still standing although the land had passed from the Devin family.

His wife, Margaret, in making application for her Widow's War Pension,
describes her husband: "about 5'8" tall, fair complexion, red hair, blue eyes."
He lived in Pittsylvania County, Virgina U.S.A., Lincoln County, Tennessee U.S.A., Pike County, Missouri U.S.A. (for almost 1 year), and Polk County, Missouri U.S.A.
