They were both [illegible] when they were married and we were each well acquainted with them and they were well known throughout the neighborhood and we never heard of either of them having been previously married and we each think that we had known them long enough previous to their marriage and were sufficiently acquainted with them that if either of them had ever been previously married the fact would have become known to us. They were married after the war but we do not remember the date of the marriage. We remember that they lived together [illegible] after said marriage as husband and wife and were generally recognized as husband and wife in the neighborhood where they lived. We have been acquainted with since[?] their said marriage and we have known that they have always since said marriage lived together as husband and wife and have been generally recognized as such by all who knew them so far as we know up to the time of the death of said Maston Miner which occurred in the month of October 1898. They the said Maston Miner and the said Eady Miner have remained together as husband and wife since their said marriage and if either of them were ever divorced we never knew or heard the slightest intimation of it and think our acquaintance with them has been such that it would have become known to us. We have also each been well acquainted with the said Eady Miner since the death of her husband Maston Miner and do not know of and have never heard of her re-marriage since his death in the month of Oct. 1898, and believe that if she had ever remarried since his death the fact would have become known to us. We are also acquainted with the five children of the claimant and the claim for as being under 16 years of age at the date of soldiers death, Arizona, David, Wm. R., Russia, and Cornelius Miner, as at least the [one?] is what we understand names [???] children to be and know that said children are still living. Affiant W.H. Martin states further that he was present and witnessed the marriage of the deceased soldier Maston Miner and the [cut off in copy] Eady Miner whose name was Sumpter prior to her marriage. [One line at top of page is illegible.] ...of deceased soldier and claimant under 16 years - date of soldier's death so far as we know and as we firmly believe. We further declare that we have no interest in said case and are not concerned in its prosecution.

In the matter of pension claim of Eady Miner, widow of Maston Miner, No. 686299, Co. "G" 12th Mo. S.M. Vol. Cav.
On this 11 day of May A.D. 1899, personally appeared before me L.P. Fuller, Clerk Circuit Court, in and for the aforesaid County, duly authorized to administer oaths Nancy Jane Sumpter, aged about 64 years, resident of near Boles, in the County of Scott and State of Arkansas whose Post Office address is Boles, Scott County, Arkansas, and Dr. P.L. Black, aged 52 years, a resident of near Boles, in the County of Scott, and State of Arkansas, whose Post Office address is Boles, Scott County, Arkansas, well known to be reputable and entitled to credit, and who, being duly sworn, declared in relation to aforesaid case as follows: Nancy Jane Sumpter states: I am the mother of the claimant. I was present I saw her married to the soldier Maston Miner. Don't remember the date of the marriage now but the family Bible shows the date of their marriage to be July 15, 1869, which date I believe is correct. As well as I remember during the year 1898, soldier and claimant [word?] property [word?] and assessed as follows: Ten (10) head of cattle valued at $60.00 [cut off] mules valued at $50; 20 head of hogs valued at $20; 1 wagon valued at $25, and household property assessed at $20.00 and all income claimant has had from above personal property that I know of is only [word?] calf the increase of one of the cows. Claimant owns no real estate - she lives on a homestead claim soldier owned no real estate in Ark [word?] or elsewhere at time of his death and at time of his death he was living on a homestead claim on which his widow now lives [word?] and Eady Miner now owns the following personal property: 6 head of cattle including [word?] young calf; one wagon about 15 head of hogs - a few farming tools, and household goods and 2 mules - and all the personal property she now owns I consider worth about $160. Claimant has no one but herself and her children on whom to depend for support. Claimant has no means of support except the above property and her daily labor with what assistance her children may render her above personal property as I am informed and believe [word?] now under mortgage.
P.L. Black says in relation to aforesaid case as follows: I live within about one mile of the claimant Eady Miner and know pretty well about the personal property she owns. As near as I remember her personal property consists of about the following: 2 mules, 6 head of cattle, including only [?] young[?] calf, an old wagon - about 15 head of hogs - farming tools and household goods and I believe all of said property to be worth about $160.00. Claimant as far as I know and believe has no other means of support except the above personal property which she has and her own daily labor with the [word?] of her children. The above personal property is mortgaged as I am informed and believe at the time [words?] of State as to the property of soldier or claimant [word?] the year 1898, but I have examined the assessment and for the year 1898 in the County Clerk's Office and find property to be described and assessed as follows: [cut off] head of cattle, valued or assessed at $60; 2 mules, assessed at [cut off]; 20 head of hogs, assessed at $20; one wagon, assessed at $25; [cut off] of other property required by law to be listed $20; making total personal property assessed at $175, in name of Maston Miner year 1898.

On this 11 day of May A.D. 1899, personally appeared before me a Clerk Circuit Court in and for the aforesaid County, duly authorized to administer oaths Dr. P.L. Blck, age 52 years, whose Post Office address is Boles, Scott County, Arkansas, who, being duly sworn, declares in relation to said case as follows: I knew the soldier Maston Miner, deceased, in his life time, was personally acquainted with him before his marriage to the claimant Eady Miner, his widow. I am a practicing physician and have been practicing medicine for about 30 years. I cannot give the immediate cause of soldier's death because he had no physician before he died as he died suddenly. I saw the soldier however within a few hours after he died. The family sent for me and I went soon as I could and when I got to his house I found him dead. I could not state positively the immediate cause of soldier's death because I made no examination which would enable me to ascertain had it been possible to ascertain the immediate cause of his death. Soldier, however, I know was afflicted with chronic diseases which I believe caused his death. I do not now remember the exact date of the soldier Maston Miner's death but the widow informs me that the date of his death was Oct. 15, 1898, and I think that was about the time they sent for me to come to his house and therefore I really believe Oct. 15th 1898 to be the correct date of the death of said Maston Miner.
He further declares that he has no interest in said case, and is not concerned in its prosecution.

I am unable to furnish a certified copy of the public or church record showing date and immediate cause of soldier's death because no such records exist. I am unable to furnish certified copy of public or church records showing date of my marriage to soldier because no such records are in existence that I know of, or at least I am unable to ascertain anything about such records.

CLAIMANT'S AFFIDAVIT

State of Arkansas, County of Scott, SS:
In the matter of pension claim of Mrs. Eady Miner, widow of Maston Miner, dec'd., Co. I, 5th Regt. Cav'y., M.S.M.
On this 19 day of June, A.D., 1899, personally appeared before me a Clerk of the Circuit Court in and for the aforesaid County, duly authorized to administer oaths the claimant Eady Miner, age 44 as well as I can tell, whose Post Office address is Boles, Scott County, Arkansas, who, being duly sworn, declares in relation to said case as follows: My name is Eady Miner; my age is 44 years as near as I can tell. I am the widow of Maston Miner, deceased, and the claimant in this case. The correct date of the birth of my daughter Arizona is July 9, 1884. I know July 9, 1884 to be the correct date of Arizona's birth because the date of her birth I saw written down by my deceased husband in our family Bible. I saw him write the date of her birth in the Bible when Arizona, my daughter, was only about 3 days old, and July 9, 1884 is the date the Bible shows now and therefore I know the same to be the correct date. I further swear that there is no public or church record of the births of my children. And said family Bible Record of births now in my possession is the only proof obtainable showing dates of births of my children that I have any knowledge of.
I further swear that the farm on which I now live the same being also the farm on which my deceased husband lived in his life time I have heretofore designated as a homestead claim, as we lived there and it was commonly called a homestead claim, but the fact is that although the land as I understand and am informed and believe is U.S. government Vacant land yet although my husband lived there in his life time and I am still residing thereon the land was never really homesteaded by my deceased husband and the only claim he had or could claim to the land was simply that he had established his [word] lines thereon with his family and therefore as my deceased husband never homesteaded the land he never perfected or attempted to perfect his claim or title thereto and he therefore never left any title or claim to me by which I would have a right to continue my residence and perfect title to the land, either myself or my children and I am only simply residing on this land. The land is really U.S. government land, subject to homestead entry but I have never homesteaded the same since the death of my husband. I have not the means now to homestead the land even if I desired to do so, besides, it is poor land and rocky. If the land I have is homesteaded by someone entitled to make a homestead entry before I get able to homestead I would have to vacate the land. There is 80 acres, 2 40s in the tract or claim on which I reside and on which my husband resided in his life time of which about 20 acres is in cultivation. The average yearly crops on this land is about as follows: About 200 bushels of corn worth generally between $80 and [???] and about one bale of cotton worth generally now from $25.00 to $30.00 per bale. Myself and children are working the land this year and have no one else except myself and children on whom to depend for cultivation of the land and myself and children are supported only by our own work and daily labor.
