Please Note: Undoubtedly there were more Confederate Pensioners or their widows from Grant County; these were the ones I found in books or on film concerning Grant. Perhaps your ancestor applied in a different county or state. I did notice a few people who were born in Grant County but applied in a different county and I have listed them here, as I said, I am sure there are more. If you can add to this list please contact us and we will gladly include them.
REQUIREMENTS: Must have been a resident of Kentucky since 1907. Widows must have been married to the Veteran prior to 1890.
