I have the Index at hand and can check any name you desire; at least you won't be looking for a name not on the film. I have found few ex-Confederates who went into the Home from my part of the State (Southeast Missouri) but of course many applied for a pension. The film is at the Missouri State Archives in Jefferson City, Missouri. Perhaps they will retrieve the man you seek if you know the reel number--I have never done it that way. I have some other tips for research if you want to contact me.
