STATE OF TENNESSEE COUNTY OF BLOUNT In the matter of pension claim no. 612771 of SARAH WEBB widow of Linch Webb of Co. "B" 2d Regt Tenn Cav Vols. Personally came before me, a Clerk of a Court in and for said County and State, JAMES A. JACKSON aged 62 years, whose postoffice address is Maryville County of Blount, State of Tenn well known to me be reputable and entitled to credit, and who being duly sworn, declares in relation to the aforesaid case, as follows: "I remember well the circumstance of my father SAMUEL JACKSON Esq going to perform the marriage ceremony between the soldier & the Claimant, cannot give the date of their marriage, I have seen the marriage License at my father's with the return on there showing he married them. I can't tell where the marriage License are now, the last time I saw them they were with his old papers. My father has been dead near forty years. I know they were recognized in the community after that continually as husband & wife, up to the death of the Soldier. Neither the Claimant or the soldier had ever been previously married and the Claimant has not re-married since the death of her husband the Soldier, and they were never divorced from each other. I have no interest in this claim and I am not concerned in its prosecution. This affidavit was all written in my presence and only from my oral statements here made in Maryville Tenn on the 9th day of March 1896 made to W. C. CHUMLEA and reduced to writing by him and in making the same I did not use and was not aided or prompted thereto by any written or printed statement or recital prepared or dictated by any other person." JAMES A. JACKSON (Signature of Affiant) Sworn to and Subscribed before me this day by the above named Affiant; and I certify that I read said affidavit to said Affiant and acquainted him with its contents before he executed the same. I further certify that I am in nowise interested in this case, nor am I concerned in its prosecution, and that said Affiant is personally known to me, that he is a creditable person and so reputed in the community in which he resides. Witness my hand and official seal, this 9" day of March, 1896. BEN CUNNINGHAM, Signature of Official, Clerk County Court
