There are a few Alabama, Confederate Pension Applications, ca. 1880-1930's with difference dates for S A Beason. As I was reading through them, I came across a letter I thought I would share.
The letter -
Mrs. S A Beason, this applicant in response to an oral examination says: I was life with 4 children when my husband went to the war and had no means of support except negros labor with one boy to help. My husband was captured at Shelbyville Tennessee in the summer of 1863 and was kept in prison till after the surrender and reached home the 23 day of June 1865 and died in Sept 1866. (Dated: 7 June 1900)
As reading the statement from Sarah Ann Beason, we clearly see that Richard's headstone year date does not match. My theory is that since this family was poor, they could not afford a headstone. Only later, someone or the state was able to put the headstone in but not remembering the year date. Again, this is only a theory, my guess.
Cause of Death: taken from the Alabama, Confederate Pension Applications, ca. 1880-1930's - S A Beason • Pension - 23 May 1892 • Cleburne, Alabama, United States • Veteran's Name: Richard J Beason (Widow's Application states that her husband, Richard J Beason was a Private in Company D of 51 Regiment of Alabama volunteer; that he came to his death from disease contracted in the service of the Confederate State, and that his death occurred during the late war or within five years thereafter).
