Did you have to know where they ended up? I'm going through the Rev War pensions and those are filed according to last name. Or do you know? I'm trying to find out where they went, they got married in the 1780s - so they might have already died by 1870... thank you Julie Phebe <phebem@comcast.net> wrote: Julie I am getting into this conversation late. But this is what I did. I believe the pensions for widows for the war of 1812 did not start until the latter part of the 1870's. The application -- although it was denied -- I located at NARA in Washington. It was a special request and the material had to be "pulled." At that time it was not on microfilm. This man served from Wythe Co VA and his widow, when applied, lived in TN. It contained wonderful information as date and place of marriage and her maiden name.
