Civil War Pension File: What I Learned
17 September 2010
When I ordered my great great grandfather's, Samuel Stillman Glover, Jr., civil war pension file, it was the most I had spent on genealogical records ($75). Was it worth the price? I would say absolutely, yes! I am very pleased with the information I have received from his file. I found information about Samuel himself, but even as important I was able to fill in a few blanks about his wife, Adeline L. Dyer. Here is what I learned from Samuel's civil war pension file:
Confirmation of Samuel S. Glover's Birth date: 13 May 1836
Place of Samuel S. Glover's Birth: Ypsilanti, Washtenaw, Michigan
Date of Adeline Dyer's Birth: 6 March 1838
Place of Adeline Dyer's Birth: New York City, New York
Date of Adeline Dyer's Death: 19 December 1917
Place of Adeline Dyer's Death: King, Waupaca, Wisconsin
Other information gleaned from his pension file included:
Physical Description of Samuel
Civil War Service and Injury Detail
Health Throughout His Life after Service and
Birth dates and Names of Samuel's children.
