Thank you, thank you, thank you! My 4th great grandfather’s last name
started with a C and I have already found valuable information in his file
regarding his exact death date, which was a bit of a mystery until now.
While I haven’t found any information on his widows family (which I was
hoping for), the rest of the 44-page file is a plethora of previously
unknown information which I cannot wait to sift through!

Crista – Great presentation it helped me find out that my 3GGrandfather’s
widow had no idea of where he died as she lists it as PA or LA in his 1812
Pension App. … Her 3 grown children apparently had no idea of where their
father died either per the Pension application… (BTW – the states
mentioned have no record of his death either.) I know it is the right
Joshua Fletcher as the widow’s brother, who lived with them, is one of
those who participated in the application & documentation.
