Hello...maybe you can deem some info from Samuel's military records (Co. E, 58th IN
Inf.). I have seen where they have valuable information included (sometimes not!). I see
by the census records your Samuel went from IN to MO to KS to MO to CO and finally back to
MO. He has some Denver Land Office records in Colorado but I don't think that would
help you much. Sarilda [Bixler] Ledgerwood must have died? before 1920 as Samuel is listed
with a Margaret, born Ohio, in 1920. Samuel applied for disability (per military record)
in 1873 but their isn't a widow listed applying for a pension so no help on his death
year there. Maybe the military records will have something useful for you. Good luck!
