If you ordered the full packet, you should find more ancestors in it. A
veteran or his widow had to have witnesses to get their pensions. Many of
these witnesses are relatives. Pension files have a lot of family
information in them, especially since they now have the full packet, which
is all the papers on the veteran, not just the "main pages" that they used
to send or only send if you don't order the "full packet". I hope you get
a lot of good stuff in yours.
