I am presently at the National Archives searching through Rev. Soldiers, looking for john Stewart m. Anne Hawe.  I haven't located the pension yet. However, I did come across John Stewart Jr. 's widow application.  Her name was Mourning Buford. I have in my notes she was Mourning Floyd.  Can anyone shed light why the name is different.  Her daughter Permelia S. Perkins wrote her down as Mourning Buford.  Angela Harrell GENEALOGY: n.

Did Mourning remarry? The application may state so. Other scenario could be she was a widow when she married John, and her husband´s last name was Floyd, when her maiden name was Buford. You have to see if Mourning was married to a Floyd and a Buford, Teresa Stuart de Rios --- On Fri, 3/18/11, Angela Harrell <[email protected]> wrote: > From: Angela Harrell <[email protected]> > Subject: [STEWART] Mourning Floyd Stewart > To: [email protected] > Date: Friday, March 18, 2011, 2:16 PM > I am presently at the National > Archives searching through Rev.
