This
series consists of papers filed by twenty Cumberland County Revolutionary
War veterans in relation to applications for federal pension under
acts of Congress passed in 1818 and 1819. The files date from 1820-1829,
and generally include two basic documents: 1) an affidavit providing
details of military service, and 2) an itemized inventory of the
applicant's real and personal property. Some affidavits also include
references to the veteran's family members. The files are arranged
alphabetically by name of applicant; places of residence are also
noted in the contents list below.
Item No.
