My gg-grandfather who was wounded, discharged, and then reinlisted, after the Civil War applied for listing on the "invalid pension roll." What is that? He apparently withdrew his application and returned to Ireland. Thanks in advance. Cousin Bill

What is that? ----------------- Bill, He was hoping to draw a pension (a monthly payment from the Government) based on service-connected disability. Once he was listed on the roll, he'd be able to collect the money. Dennis
