"Old War", in my experience, chiefly refers to a set of pension applications covering military service in the period from circa 1800 to circa 1861,i.e. before the Civil War. The Civil War era pension index cards frequently refer to info on an "Old War" pension card. There are seven microfilm reels, National Archives ID # T0316 (the second digit there is a zero, not the letter o). In the LDS family history collection, the films are numbered consecutively starting with 821603. If you go to familysearch.org, click on the tab marked "family history library catalog" near the top center of the page, then click on the button on the right hand side labeled "Film/Fiche search" and then type 821603 in the blank, it should take you right to the Old War Pension Index.

Thanks everyone for your replies. I believe I have figured out what the OLD WAR was. He was listed as being in the FL U. S. V. Inf. On doing some further checking, I see that these were units sent to the Philippines in the Spanish American War. So evidently on some pension records it lists Old War instead of Spanish American War. Phyllis
Phyllis This term I have not run into but the war before the Civil War which would most apply would be the Mexico war of 1848 and that would be my guess for a soldier who served in the Civil War. The one before that was the war of 1812 and would likely be applicable.

In looking at some Civil War pensions, I find some who were listed as serving in the OLD WAR. Also some severed in a unit in the Civil War as well. Both were listed on the pension record. What is the meaning of old war? I did some looking on Google but could not come up with anything. Thanks Phyllis

Information on Whittington: William Whittington Residence was not listed; Enlisted on 5/22/1861 at Poca, WV as a Private. On 5/22/1861 he mustered into "A" Co. VA 22nd Infantry (date and method of discharge not given) He was listed as: * Detailed 8/13/1861 White Sulphur Springs, WV (On mounted guard) * Sick 8/20/1861 White Sulphur Springs, WV (With measles, no further record.) Also additional information on Monroe S Thaxton from what Mike Peters gave is that he originally signed with Company 'A' in the 8th WV mounted infantry which converted in January 1864 to Company 'A' in the 7th WV Cavalry. He applied for an invalid Pension July 22, 1889 and someone named "Nettie Thaxton" applied as Widow in September 27 1920 (the '20' is fuzzy and might be something else). The pension file should be available through NARA.

Thanks Jane, Mike & Tom I always try the easy way first. Guess I'll try sending off for Hulin's record if there is one. Does anyone know if there is a Federal Cemetery at Memphis where Hulin could be buried? I haven't looked hard at the Union side as my Union family members made it home after the war and died of old age, however, most of my Rebels did also. I do have 2 great great Uncles who were in "B" company of the 52nd Inf. CSA that died (probably of the measles) at Henderson Station TN in March and April of 1862. I haven't gotten any help on finding out where they might be buried. Tom! What is the name and outfit of your Mississippi soldier in case I might run across him?
