I mailed this message to Sara last night sara@exvw.com it bounced back so I am putting it on this list, hope everyone won't mind, I think this is her ancestor. Sue Dear Sara, A while back I said I would look up your ancestor John Adams in the War of 1812 Pensioners. Sorry to take so long to get back to you, I just recently had to put one of my dogs to sleep because of bone cancer, she was such a great dog and it was a real heartbreaker. This one might be yours. ADAMS John, wid Sarah Ann (1st h Elkins) 2nd wife, VA & W VA, WC-32238, SC-5715, m 5 Jan 1854 Cabel City, VA (now W VA), sd 17 Oct 1880 Guyandotte W VA, srv Krider's NC Mil, lived in Pittsylvania Cty VA & Cabel Cty W VA They most definitely have records for this person. Looks this one is yours I'd send for them again. Be sure to put the state from which he served. Looks like he served from North Carolina. My ancestor lived in Maryland and served from New York State, figure that one out. Hope this helps you and again I am sorry to take so long. Sue
