Re: Civ. War Pension names of witnesses
In Response To: Re: Civ. War Pension records Dennis WEAVER, VA ()
Hi Lee, Yes - found the form with addresses - he lists DC and then Loudoun - though I've known where he lived (on our land) I didn't know the DC part. This is a treasure trove...still reading. So far I have testimony from Henry Jackson, an elderly neighbor, and collateral relative who is the father of George Jackson - whose WPA slave narrative I have on my website: http://www.wemba-music.org/jackson_slave_narrative.htm A "William Sippy" - this is a common mis-spelling of Scipio - cousins of the family - turns out William served in Civ War also so will get his records too. Also in affadavits are a Robert Lowery - don't know who this is - am looking at census, & a J.D. Thomas. Martha Roberts - my great aunt, who raised my mom also testified. More to come.... Denise
