I'm gonna try this again, I left out info in last email. I am trying to gather any info on a Henry Spong. I am trying to prove whethter or not he might be my ancestor. I found him in the 1850 Armstrong Co. census he was age 8 living with his parents Kilion age 43, Elizabeth age 49, Catherine age 10, Christina age 6. he fought in Civil War for the 103rd Pa and died at Andersonville Prison in GA. I have found that he did reside in Armstrong co during the 1860 census but unable to view those census he's on page 534. I am hoping to find out if he was married and had children before he died. anything would be greatly appreciated Patti Spong Walker __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Patti: This is going to cost you a little bit of money, but this is my best suggestion. My husband's great grandfather was in Co. H of the 103 PVI. I found this information at: http://users.aol.com/EvanSlaug/rosts.html SPAWN (SPONG), HENRY, Private, Company D. Mustered November 13, 1861. Captured in Plymouth, North Carolina April 20, 1864. Andersonville Code 30497. Comrades reported his death while in prison. Andersonville Code: 30000-39999 Reportedly died at Andersonville, but lack any record Since you know in which regiment he served during the Civil War: Send an e-mail to: [email protected] requesting NATF Form 85 This is the form to order Military Pension file records. Fill out the form with as much information that you know and then send it back. In about 6 months, you will be notified if a Military Pension file exists and if so will be asked to submit your payment. Within 1-2 weeks after remitting payment you will then receive the file that you requested. If no file is found, there is no charge. Since there is a variation is spelling noted in the above information, I would request the records under both spellings. While the 1860 census MAY show a marriage, there is an equal chance that it will not. I had this occur in my research.
