Thanks Tim, that's my Delos but I wasn't sure how much of the 1890 census survived. Here in Ohio I think all the 1890 Civil War Pension for Widows and Pensioners is avalible. I did see he was in the Ill. 129th infantry but I didn't know whether it was worth sending $37.00 to NARA for his pension file if it didn't exist. I do have a Civil War vet in the family who didn't file for pension. Otherwise I could just send $17.00 for the muster roll and any other info Delos file contained. Thanks again, Cindy Tim Bryant <tpbryant9@yahoo.com> wrote: Cindy, I can't find an 1890 census entry, and that is not be surprising because most of the 1890 federal census was destroyed by fire. Only McDonough County was spared. For what it's worth (and you may already know this), there was a fellow of the same name in the 1910 census: ROBINSON DELOS 75 M W NY IL LASALLE MISSION TWP 1910 The same person is on the 1860, 1870, and 1900 censuses. Of course, your man could well have been a different person (especially if he died in 1906!), as his Civil War record states his residence was Livingston County: ROBINSON, DELOS SGT C 129 IL US INF LIVINGSTON CO And Mission Twp wasn't close to Livingston Cty: http://www.sos.state.il.us/departments/archives/irad/township_maps/lasalle_m ap.html Best wishes, Tim -----Original Message----- From: Cynthia Mac Suibhne [mailto:barkupthetree@yahoo.com] Sent: Saturday, April 23, 2005 7:04 AM To: ILLASALL-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [ILLASALLE] ROBINSON Delos and the 1890 Special Civil War Pensioners Could someone tell me if Delos ROBINSON is listed on the 1890 census. He died in LaSalle in 1906 and fought with the 129th infantry of Ill. Thanks, Cindy ============================== Jumpstart your genealogy with OneWorldTree.

Cindy, You're quite welcome. You can get the muster roll for free by making a request at http://www.sos.state.il.us/departments/archives/datcivil.html#photocopies. All you need is the database info I included in my earlier response. I'm happy I got the right guy. I have a friend at work who did get the pension file for one of his ancestors, and I believe it was worth his while.
