Civil War Benefits Still Being Paid

[LincolnToddFan]

As of October 2013, the Sons of the Union Veterans of the Civil War ( of which I am a member) has documented 26 living sons and daughters of Union veterans. There is more than one widow listed also. It doesn't say anything about pension status.

It's astonishing to imagine that there are any living children of civil war veterans....but a widow too??!

God bless her...she must be ancient at this point!
