Overview

By: U.S. Department of the Interior, Pub. 1852, reprinted 2025, 466 pages, soft cover, ISBN #978-1-63914-638-3. Here is another wonderful source for genealogical research during the Revolutionary War. It is a United States Senate Document which lists the names and residences of about 11,000 Revolutionary War soldiers and/or their widows who applied for pensions and whose claims were rejected or suspended, along with the reasons. Most of the claims were for authentic service of actual Revolutionary soldiers but were rejected or suspended because the soldier did not serve for six months, his name did not appear on the rolls, or because a claim was suspended for further proof, such as proof of marriage. Still other claims were turned down on grounds of desertion, privateer service, or other service in a non-military category. The lists of suspended applications are arranged by states.
