Jerry, Evidently, Remington did not get a Civil War pension, at least under that name. But, the widow of Crosby C. Whitney did. Remington has been discussed in the past among my fellow Maine Whitney researchers, but to no conclusion. I'm taking the summer off from genealogy, as there's just too much else to occupy my time. Plus, I find that a vacation from genealogy once in awhile gives me a different perspective on the problems there involved. However, when the lousy weather returns, I'll check out Crosby and see what gives. Ken Whitney Silver Spring, MD ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gerald E.
