I checked the Texas Confederate Pension Index, do not find an application under his name or that of a widow.

These were first authorized ca 1890 and were only provided from former Confederate states.

Send me your email address and I will forward the quite lengthy report of the Irish Bend affair. ggmartin55@att.net
