Re: Gholson's Independent Cavalry Brigade

Andy,

Do you know if your grandmother, Laura Frances, filed for a Widow's Pension and if so there may be another clue to his service within this application.

I'm sure you are aware Laura Frances Miller became a resident of Beauvoir Confederate Soldier's Home in Biloxi on 9/20/1931.
After her marriage to Moses Stringer(1846-7/29/1936) on 10/5/1932 she would only be able to apply for a widow's pension based on Moses Stringer's CSA service.
