The T-288 cards nearly always give the name of the applying widow, which the T-289 cards do not. T-288 sometimes also give name of a guardian if one was appointed for orphaned children under age 16 whose father died while in service. T-288 cards, however, do not give death dates for veterans, which the T-289 cards do. So it can be very helpful to get both :D Fold3.com has a free trial period. What it does *not* have is the Compiled Military Service Record Cards for any Ohio, PA or Indiana units. The CMSRs give summaries from each muster- or payroll for each soldier, and are great for tracking military careers of our relatives. Sometimes they include enlistment papers too, with birth dates or at least ages, places of residence, etc. You can, however, order copies of these from NARA for $, in addition to actual pension files.<br /><br />In my summaries above I did not give complete data from what I found. So there is more detail for you to note and interpret yourself.<br /><br />Good hunting!Geoloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12050268303916428230noreply@blogger.com
