This index sheet is found in the Civil War Pension File of my paternal third great-grandfather. It contains one item - the declaration for a Widow's Pension by my third great-grandmother. It was filed on April 25, 1908.
My third great-grandfather qualified for a Civil War Pension because he served in the Union Army in company I of the 215 Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry for a short time at the end of the war.
Every ancestor is more than just a name. Every one of them has a story. We are connected genetically, physically, and emotionally. We are who we are because of who they were.
