I may go back and finish copying the rest of the pensions but not for a few weeks! I have stacks of paper everywhere right now. One other note: you can bring a laptop and approved scanner into the research room at the Archives. Also I think I exaggerated the average length of a file--I would say it is more like 20 pages, although there are some huge files out there. Laurel Baty L252 War of 1812 Pension Card Abstracts [M313, Index to War of 1812 Pension Application Files, 102 rolls.] These cards are on microfilm, I have abstracted the soldiers name, date of enlistment, unit, widow's maiden name, date of marriage if given and residence information of soldier and widow. There are also a series of numbers on the cards—SO (soldiers original, used when the soldier was an invalid), SC (soldier's certificate), WO (widow's original), WC (widow's certificate) and Bounty Land that I can provide to anyone who is interested in a particular person. The actual pension files have not been microfilmed and must be requested from the National Archives—if you are visiting the Archives you can obtain a researcher card and request a maximum of 4 files per document pull (these are at set times throughout the day) or 24 files per day (a mistake in this case, because I couldn't copy 24 files by myself, I think I managed to copy 15)! You then view the files in a special room (second floor) into which you may bring only a pencil and paper. You may Xerox the files with approval of an Archivist—a large document scanner is also available. You can also sign up to use a bulk copier for one hour which I recommend as the files are quite large, the average length probably about 40 pages (it can be hard to copy a long file on the copiers in the research room on a crowded day and you are supposed to limit your time to 3 minutes when others are waiting). I am going to put an * in front of names that did not appear on the first list I sent out. These are all of the alternate spellings that I could find. *Batey, Thomas (or Beatie), Capt.

I have copied this file and shared copies with three members of L2 [the copies are on the way, mailed Saturday] Beatty, William, Pvt., Capt. John Kennedy’s Co., Tenn. Mil., Oct. 4, 1813 – Dec. 11, 1813, 1850, 1855, Fentress Co., Tenn., 1871, Casey Co., (PO Liberty) Ky, died Aug. 5, 1877, Casey Co., Ky.; Original family record in brief. Widow: Martha Westmoreland, married Apr. 28, 1814 Overton Co., Tenn.; 1877, 1878, Casey Co., (PO Liberty) Ky. This file is over 60 pages long! The highlights are so many that I will let L2 share them with you. But I will share something funny I noticed on the original document. In two places on the document "The Children Age by William I. Beaty" there are notations that the document should be returned! At least a copy is on its way home to Fentress County, Tennessee. The children listed (their birth and death dates are also listed): Andrew Jackson, Thomas K. Haris, Elisebeth, William C., Sarah, Anne, Agnes, George Washington, Jane, Dellery Frances, Marten Van Buren, John Marion, Emeline; wife Martha's birthdate is also given (1798) plus State which I am having trouble reading and date of marriage. At the bottom of the page there is the name of David Beaty, Thomas K. Beaty's name appears three times as well as John M.--I don't know what the significance of these bottom names are. I did see somewhere in this vast file that Andrew Jackson was living in Indiana. This is a document worth scanning--you can bring a laptop computer and approved scanner into the research room (without their cases). There are several letters concerning the document. From Martha "I knew he had a record of births and deaths & marriages and I thought the same was lost until ...My daughter Jane the only child living with me in hunting over her her fathers papers in an old box found the record of births and just has forwarded to you in his handwriting can be proven by all our neighbors" William enlisted at Monroe, Overland County. One note about Southern files--proof of loyalty to the Union Army was required. Laurel Baty, L252
