Comments: Sallyıs efforts to obtain a widowıs pension finally paid off in 1849. In spite of the fact that she had applied for one as early as 1841, and again in 1844/45, the pension that she was granted was only retroactive to March 4, 1848. It appears that she may have received the full annual amount of $41.55 with this notification. Unfortunately, she did not have much time to enjoy the benefits of this pension, as she died less than two months after the date of this document. |
