go to footnote.com righ...RE: Michael Kelly/Kelley<br /><br />go to footnote.com right here: http://www.footnote.com/browse.php#31|-1<br /><br />and search in the Veteran's Pension Index. KELLY, Michael has two cards, one for his service in Co. G, 6th Regt. NYHA and one for his service in Co. L., 10th Regt. NYHA. Both cards list "additional service" and refer to the opposite company, so there's your man! I've listed the contents of both cards but if you want the images head over to footnote while it's till free!<br /><br />State: New York <br />Arm Of Service: Heavy Artillery <br />Regiment: 10 (or 6)<br />Company: L (or G)<br />Roll Number: 380 (or Roll 377)<br />Collection Title: Civil War Pensions <br /><br />State: New York <br />Arm Of Service: Heavy Artillery <br />Regiment: 6<br />Company: G<br />Roll Number: 377<br />Collection Title: Civil War Pensions <br /><br />It looks like this man's widow applied for a pension on 7 Jun 1877, which falls right in line with your 1870-1880 range of death for him. Neither card gives a death date but both gives a widow's pension application #231743, cert number of #204906.<br /><br />I did a search of the available widow's pensions from NY (only 1% of which are done anyway) and his widow's pension wasn't there, but it's a start. He got a government stone so something is there!<br /><br />Hope this helps!Patti Browninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16071347657188818481noreply@blogger.com
