War Pension file Applications, Microfilm M804.1993: Mrs. G.E. Mimller 1646 Brownice Ave. Youngstown, Ohio, Madam: I have to advise you, that from the papers in the pension claim, R.8557, it appears that Richard Ragan, while living in Augusta County, Virginia, near Harrisonburg, was appointed March 27, 1780 a Captain of the Militia of Rockingham County, Virginia. He married date not stated, Cecilia, maiden name not given and he died at Harrisonburg, Virginia, May 18, 1827. They had a son Daniel born in 1772 and another younger son, name not on record and a daughter Mary, who married Benjamin VanPelt. The widow Cecilia, applied for penison, March 29, 1837, while living in Harrisonburg, Virginia, aged eighty-seven years, but her claim was not allowed, as she failed to prove that her husband rendered six months service as required by the pension laws.
