The Civil War Pension file of Riley Rampley contains testimony from these three comrades: Eli Short, Wilford Cubbage and Wilford Manlove. All men lived in either Hancock or Adams Counties. I am contemplating ordering their complete pension files in order to determine if Riley provided testimony in their cases or if their pensions shed any additional light on his service. Ordering the complete pension is $37 each from the National Archives. Are there any relatives of Cubbage, Manlove or Short, who would like to chip in? I would send a copy of my copy or scan the whole file and send it to you. Thanks! Michael Riley is my great-great-grandfather - ------------------------------------ Michael John Neill 2007 Salt Lake City Research Trip http://www.rootdig.com/slctrip.html

Hi Michael - If you don't find anyone here to chip in, you could try posting your note to those surnames' mailing lists too: http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/surname/c/cubbage.html http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/surname/m/manlove.html http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/surname/s/short.html Cheers, Joy Joy Schwarz http://del.icio.us/freude On 2/5/07, Michael Neill <mjnrootdig@gmail.com> wrote: > The Civil War Pension file of Riley Rampley contains testimony from > these three comrades: Eli Short, Wilford Cubbage and Wilford Manlove. > All men lived in either Hancock or Adams Counties.
