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.

Pg.1125: ADAM J. DUNCAN was born in Madison Co. MO, in 1824, and is the son of Eli and Rebecca (Johnson) Duncan, who were born in Kentucky and Missouri, in 1802 and 1805, respectively.

They were members of the Missionary Baptist Church, and he held the office of judge of the county court for some time. In 1829, Adam J. Duncan came with his parents to Wayne Co. MO. About 1839 they went to Ripley County, but a year or so later returned to their old place in Madison County, and there Adam J. lived until his marriage in 1851, to Melvina Mann, who was born in 1831, in Wayne Co. MO. To them were born the following children: Henry C., Rebecca J., Eli A. (deceased), Finus E. (deceased), Richard A., Nancy C., Mary E. and Martha L. Rebecca married William Hoskins; Catherine is the wife of William Jordan, and Mary is the wife of James McAllister.

Mrs. Duncan's parents were Andrew and Susan (Duncan) Mann, and were native Missourians.
