1883 Pension List - Clinton County, NY The following list was provided by James Elbrecht for inclusion on the Clinton County Page. Many thanks to him for providing it. He ordered the original 1883 set, and found that the Baltimore Pub. Co. just copied the government documents verbatim. Any mistakes that may have been in the original documents, remain. There are 424 entries. According to a NARA researcher that contacted James, the pension # might just confuse someone looking for a pension. The researcher said that the pension #'s might change during the course of some pensions, so the pension # listed may not be accurate. The list is broken into three sections. Surnames from A through G are below. Click here for surnames H through Q. and here for R through Z Name Post Office Cause Monthly Rate Cert. # Date of Allowance Alford, Mary C.
