    • Sources: CE,POE29-2,81[IGI],
      VR 1843 11 Jan Isaac and Polly married at Homer, Medina Co., OH.
      81 1844 11 Jan Has this date for their marriage.

      29-2 1863 27 Jul Polly Poe of Concord T., Jefferson Co., WI, widow of Isaac Poe, SGT, Co. F, 29th REGT of WI Volunteers - commanded by CPT Charles A. Holmes and COL Charles R. Gill - made this statement: Isaac enlisted at Jefferson, WI, 14 Aug 1862, for 3 years. He died in a hospital at Helena, Arkansas, 6 Mar 1863 of disease contracted in the line of duty as a soldier after serving 7 months 22 days. Polly married Isaac Poe 11 Jan 1843 at Homer, Medina Co., OH. There are 7 children by Isaac living: Francis M. is 18, Chauncey is 16, Cyndrilla is 14, David W. is 10, Willis is 7, Theodore is 4 and Ida is 20 months. All are residing with their mother at Concord, WI. Her attorney is George W. Bird.
      Witnesses are Webster Holcomb [her father] and Lucinda rouse [her sister].

      29-2 1863 20 Oct John and Elvira Parks [Elvira being Polly's sister] made their statement saying Isaac and Polly were married 11 Jan 1843 at Homer, Medina Co., OH by a Justice of the Peace and that they were present for the ceremony.

      29-2 1863 24 Nov The unit's casualty sheet gives Isaac's DOD as 7 Mar 1863 though all other sources have 6 Mar 1863. A slow unit clerk, I would imagine.

      29-2 1865 16 Mar Polly was granted a widow's pension, #43,006, at $8 per month, retroactive to 7 Mar 1863.
      1866 23 Nov Polly applied for an increase in the pension for David Poe born 31 Dec 1852, Flavel W. Poe born 28 sep 1855, Theodore I. Poe born 1 Aug 1858 and Ida E. Poe born 11 Nov 1861.
      1867 26 feb Polly received an increase in her pension of $2 per month for each of the four children retroactive to 25 Jul 1866.
