Well, looking back at the previously posted Christian Hiller's Three-Part Civil War Story, I really thought I had obtained all the pertinent records to complete that narrative. Wrong! Recently, after filing a Freedom of Information Act request, my mail carrier delivered a large envelope containing 116 pages of Christian Hiller's pension records: service records including hospitalizations, diagnosis, physician records, affidavits by neighbors and fellow service men, marriage certificate and widow's pension records. Basically, a mother-lode of genealogy documentation covering 1889, when Christian first applied for disability pension, until June 1944 when his widow Isabelle died. That's 55 years! The information contained in this packet is invaluable, helping me to timeline Christian's life and mesh the events with those previously known.
