Can anyone help me on how to procede in sending for information on my gggggrandfather's pension and/or service in the War of 1812? I have information that appears in a book called Ashland County Research Aid #5, Perry Township claiming that the information was abstracted from the Veteran's Burial Records in the Recorder's Office of the Ashland County Courthouse. The person in the Recorder's Office at the Ashland County Courthouse says that Henry is not listed in their records and to try Wayne County because Ashland wasn't formed until 1846. The Wayne County people I spoke with don't have this Henry Zimmerman either. I also know that Henry didn't move to Ohio until around 1823 and so he probably fought in a PA company. Here is what was in the Ashland book about my Henry Zimmerman: Henry Zimmerman b. July 17, 1792 d. Nov. 20, 1874 Army War of 1812 Capt. Levi Penney's Co. Ancestry.com has two Henry's 2nd Regiment (Ritscher's) Pennsylvania Mil and 3 Regiment (LeFevre's) Pennsylvania Mil How should I procede to find out if Capt. Levi Penney's Co. was part of one of the PA regiments or can I send for the records based just on the information that he was in Capt. Levi Penney's Co.? Thanks for any help, Virginia Thoma When I loo

Virginia, Captain Levy Penny was in Colonel Duncan Mcarthur's Ohio Volunteers and Militia. Also in this Regiment was a Henry Zimmerman, roll # 234 record # 2756 in the NARA. Before you write for his CMSR records, Henry Zimmerman was also listed in other Companies and possibly in other Ohio Regiments as well.
