The ironic thing about his brief term of service is that those two weeks in the PEMM may very well have qualified him for a Federal pension. Unlike most other veterans who served in one of the other forms of Missouri militia, men who served in the PEMM generally were eligible for pensions.

Which, by the way, gives you another avenue of research. You might want to contact the National Archives and see if he has a military file, and a pension file, for his term of service in the 10th PEMM. Each file--military and pension--would need to be ordered separately.
