Burcham of Kossuth, Indiana and John M. Reed of Gosper county, Nebraska made depositions in support of a pension claim (Mother's 469276) of Sarah Burcham Bryan who was a resident of Red Willow county, Nebraska in 1892 when the claim was made. The claim was rejected.
Find A Grave contributor Sandra Bryan Kovener (49951899) adds the following:
"Members of John's family who ended up in Nebraska showed me a letter he sent to his mom and dad shortly before the Battle of Mumsfordville, asking them to lease a piece of ground from a neighbor. He was about to come home and wanted to raise watermelons. Of course, he did not survive the battle."
