Jerry, Today's weather in Washington, D.C. is horrible, so I went to the National Archives and requested that the pension file for Crosby C. Whitney be pulled. Tomorrow I will return to review the file. While at the Archives I reviewed the Organizational Index for Civil War Pensions in order to be sure that the request for the file was complete. I noticed that in the same unit that Crosby belonged, Company A, 15th Michigan Infantry, was a Stephen A. Whitney. I figured they were relatives, but the census information that you have provided does not show him. Any idea who he was? Ken Whitney Silver Spring, MD ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gerald E.
