Softcover, this 5-1/2x8-1/2, 160 page book has five parts bound into one volume. Each part has the biographical data, as taken from pension applications, in alphabetical order and there is an index to the applicable part. This book is a more detailed treatment of the Tennessee Revolutionary pensioners, than did her Twenty-Four Hundred Tennessee Pensioners: Revolutiona and War of 1812. Based on the Invalid Lists of 1806 and the Pension Lists of 1818, 1832, 1840 it gives the following information where supplied: name, age, service, residence, source of information, date of the pension application, date and place of birth, service record, names of all family members cited in the pension statement, & places of migration to, from, or within Tennessee. The 1840 Pension List is especially interesting to researchers as it includes widows' applications. Widows were required to submit proof of marriage and children, & their applications constitute a rich vein of genealogical source material. Several hundred Revolutionary War Veterans and several thousand family members are documented. All soldiers who lived in the Tennessee country during the Revolution are found on the North Carolina rolls. Pensione! rs who moved to the state later are credited to the states in which they lived and served. While this book was sold as a "new" book, it does have one dog eared page and a five dollar discount off the new book price has been given for that. Names include: ...McBee... $15 plus $3 media mail postage.
