    Description

    Document- Aid To Volunteers/ Affidavit For Wife- 1st Wis Cav.
    A two part/ separate document that was once glued together, but found separate.  The document made through the State of Wisconsin, and dated March 11, 1865, is for Aid to Volunteers and widows of soldiers.  This soldier, William McClain of Co. "G" 1st Wis. Cavalry, a resident of LeRoy, in Dodge Co., had a wife (Maria) & 3 children in need of money.  The Affidavit states that Maria was married to the soldier at his time of enlistment, was of no deserted or discharged and was responsible for the support of his family.
    Signed by a Justice of the Peace, and Maria McClain.  A 5 cent Express Revenue stamp was applied and initialed by the JP E.G. Stoddard.
    Some small paper loss where the two pieces were one held together, glue residue showing.
    Overall very good condition.
    Haven't seen very many of these of any of the states.
