Listers, After a long and drawn out process, I have finished transcribing Confederate Pension Records frm the state of North Carolina. The records consist of soldier's and widow's applications for pension and supporting documents such as letters, affidavits and questionaires. All documents were generated after 1901 when an ammendment was made to existing pension laws for NC. I'll be posting these as I type them from my notes. Regards, Charlton Queen

Wow! Thanks, Charlton. That will be great for those of us unable to get to the recods.

North Carolina Cleveland County Be it known that on this the 15th, day of December 1932, personally appeared before me, the undersigned Notary Public, Laban Queen and being duly sworn decrees and says: That he is 87 years of age and served as a Confederate soldier in Company "C" 10th Bat. N. C. Troops, and that he is now a pensioner on the roll of Cleveland County, and that he has been personally acquainted with J. M. Queen, (who now has an application on file in the State Auditor's office for a pension) for a number of years, that he has resided in Cleveland County for many years. I have always considered him and Ex. Confederate soldier and he has been generally recognized among his friends and neighbors as having rendered service just as he stated in his application. I am informed and believe that he was enlisted in the service from McDowell County, N. C., and I am thoroughly satisfied that he did service in the War just as Mr. Queen stated in his application, and that I am only a distant relative of the said J. M. Queen. Laban Queen Affiant Subscribed and sworn to before me this the 15th , day of December, 1932. Frank L. Hoyle Notary Public, Cleveland County, N. C.
