I went on to Ancestry and found the pension index card. David Vorce listed as Invalid has a pension application number given 17 Aug 1896, his widow filed 3 Nov 1923 and was given an application number. Both of them are also given certificate numbers and at the bottom of the index card is XC 2719583 I take it that's the pension number. I gave them that the first request but they came up with nothing. The only other thing I can think of is that David mustered in with the Co. K 2nd Reg't Heavy Art'y but was transferred to Co K 9th Reg't. I don't think I listed both reg't on my request but still the pension should be there for both David Vorce reg't right? I'm going to try one more time. Thanks to those for their input, Cindy --------------------------------- Discover Yahoo! Get on-the-go sports scores, stock quotes, news & more. Check it out!
