Dear Curtis,
Go to the National Archives website. You can order Civil War Veterans
Records there. Yes, I a Veteran, died leaving minor children, and benefits
applied for, there will be affidavits verifying the volidity of the claim.
In my case, all minor children were listed, birth dates and places included.
Date and place of marriage was also included.
Good Luck,
Lance

..
I understand minor children of Union Soldiers Killed in Civil War possibly
received a pension if a relative died in the Civil War and left minor
children behind. If so, the child (via his or her guardian) may have
received a pension. That pension may provide solid evidence of the child’s
date of birth and some information about the widow.
The pension records would be federal records. If a guardian was appointed,
the records would have been created by a local court.
Where would I find these records for my 2nd great grandfather William MOORE
as there were minor children when he died?
I know his name is very common. I do know he was born 1826 KY and died bef
1870.
He married 28 Jun 1846 Lawrence Co.,IN Sarah Elizabeth CALLAHAN who was b 10
Sep 1827 Nicholas Co.,KY d 23 Sep 1907 Indian Creek Twp. Lawrence Co.,IN.
To this union 11 children which were b in Lawrence Co.,IN:
1. Napoleon B. b 1847;
2. Isaac Alexander “Alex” b Apr 1849;
3. Susan A. b May 1850;
4. Noah b 1853;
5. Lydia Jane b 1854;
6. Josephine Clementine b 3 Jun 1854;
7. Sarah Ann b 1859;
8. David Louis;
9. William Franklin “Frank” b 10 Jan 1863;
10. Euphia;
11. William;.
Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your help. Curtis
