"Kentucky Opinions containing unreported opinions of the Court of Appeals" 1871 to 1872, by Hon. J. Morgan Chinn, Clerk, Vol.4; Kentucky Opinions, Vol.4, pgs.192 to 193 (California State Law Library, Sacramento, 2/2004)
SAMUEL DUNCAN'S Admr. v. AMANDA JENKINS, et al; Court of Appeals of Kentucky; 4 Ky. Op. 192; January 6, 1871, Decided.
APPEAL from Marshall Circuit Court. C. P. Div.
Opinion of the Court by Judge Lindsay:
This court by its decision in the case of Watts v. Pettit's Heirs, 64 Ky. 154, 1 Bush 154, clearly recognizes the power of the county court under the provisions of the Act of March 10th, 1856, 1st Vol. Stanton's R. S., 581, by requiring new bonds from statutory guardians to release the surety or sureties upon existing bonds from all liability on account of the same.
In this case the guardian of the appellees upon his own motion was allowed to execute a new bond for the express purpose of releasing Duncan from liability as his surety upon his original bond.
A new bond was executed and approved and accepted by the court and it is recited in the order itself, "That Samuel Duncan can be and he is hereby forever released from any further liability as one of the sureties in said bond."
The language of the statute is that "When the security of a guardian wished to be released as such, he shall apply to the county court," &c., and it is insisted that because of the fact that in this case the application was made by the guardian and not by the surety, that it does not come within the provisions of the statute and that Duncan's representative cannot claim that his intestate was absolutely released from liability, but only that the new bond was cumulative in its legal effect. We think that it may be safely assumed that the guardian made the application because of the fact that his surety Duncan wished to be released, and this fact of itself brings this case clearly within the reason of the statute.
We are of opinion that the appellants exceptions should have been sustained as to the claim of the appellees, and the action of the court below is reversed and the cause remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
Pension Index Card File, alphabetical; of the Veterans Administrative Contact and Administration Services, Admin. Operations Services, 1861-1934; Duff to A-J Duncan (negative FHL film 540,888, some cards very faint); Joseph Duncan to Dunn (positive FHL film 540,889, some cards very dark)
Cataloged under Civil War, 1861-1865, pensions, indexes; does not say if Confederate or Federal, but probably Federal. Negative film, some cards much too faint or dark to read, some cards blurred or faded, particularly the service unit and the dates of application. Most of the very faint or dark cards were in a slightly different format, with space for years enlisted and discharged which were sometimes filled in. Many of these were for service in later years, although one or two were for service ca 1866.
Name of soldier, alias, name of dependent widow or minor, service (military unit or units), date of filing, class (invalid or widow or minor or other), Application #, Certificate #, state from which filed (sometimes blank), attorney (sometimes blank, MAD: did not usually copy), remarks. Sometimes the "Invalid" or "Widow" class had an "s" added to it before the application #; occasionally the area for the service information included a circled "S". The minor's name was frequently that of the guardian rather than the minor.
The military unit was frequently the Company Letter, the Regiment Number, sometimes US Vet Vol Inf. (US Veteran Volunteer Infantry), L.A. (Light Artillery), H.A. (Heavy Artillery), US C Inf (US Colored? Infantry), Cav. (Cavalry), Mil. Guards, V.R.C. (?Volunteer Reserve Corps?), etc. Sometimes there were several service units given.
Cards appear to be arranged by the last name, first name, middle initial if any, and state (including "US") of service.
