I chose the files of Lewis O Dove to explore for my pension file analysis. Through this, I found that Dove died as a result of the inflammation of lungs on April 18, 1865. It mentions that she had no children of her own. The jacket of Dove told me that she was a rank private of the company "C". Her rate per month at the Raleigh Agency was due to commence on the 19th of April, right after her death. She applied for her pension (that is Susan Ann Dove, the widow did), on June 27, 1867. At the time, she was quite young - only 35 years old. She mentioned at the time that she was a widow to the clerk.
