  • Notes 
    • Testimonial by James Baker regarding pension request by Marana Blackmer concerning Civil War death of her son, William H Blackmer

      STATE OF NEW YORK
      COUNTY OF NIAGARA

      James Baker a resident of Cambria in the aforesaid county being duly sworn declares he was well acquainted with Homer Blackmer husband of Marana Blackmer and with said Marana Blackmer the applicant both of whom are described in foregoing application and was well acquainted with them for many years previous to the death of said husband. That he learned of the death of said husband as stated in foregoing application and lived in the same vicinity at the time. That said husband was poor at the time of his death and had been for a long time previous. That after his death the widow has remained poor and a widow to the present time. That she has no income or land or property worth in his opinion over fifteen dollars exclusive of necessary wearing apparel and bounty obtained for service of her son William H. Blackmer deceased on account of whose death said application was made. That after the death of said Homer Blackmer his widow Marana Blackmer aforesaid was so poor she was unable to keep her children together and they worked out away from home and have to the present time. That about six years ago said William H. Blackmer worked for deponent six months in the summer season and his wages was ten dollars per month, as he believes. That during the time deponent paid him a part of his wages because his mother needed it although by the bargain he was not to pay till expiration of six months. That he learned at the time said wages were for said mother and said William H. Blackmer stated at the time the wages were paid her. That deponent has since been familiarly acquainted with said mother and her family and said William H. Blackmer has been the principal dependence of his mother for support, but he is unable to state the particular items since the time deceased worked for him & further he has no interest whatever in said application.
