Re: Benjamin Morris-Co.D,18th or 19th Va.?

I don't get any hits for Morris, Benjamin when I search the Library of Virginia's Confederate Pensions database, nor their Confederate Disabilities database. The application records in the two databases link to the scanned and digitized forms submitted for pensions and disabilities. I have had many library patrons visit our little branch who were quite moved upon seeing their ancestor's signature and the nature of his injuries. There is a search result for Morris, Benjamin in the LVA records for Family Bibles, and the catalog record includes a hyperlink to a digitized image:
