Excerpt from A List of Pensioners of the War of 1812
This record has particular value as it includes abstracts of the evidence presented by the claimant. There was no Ver mont law requiring vital records tb be kept by town clerks prior to 1840, hence attempts to learn the families of Vermont soldiers in either the Revolution or the War of 1812 frequently are futile. All who have had occasion to seek genealogical details in Vermont will realize the importance Of this pension evidence.

As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades.

Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
