I am starting to delve into pension records for an ancestor and his widow. I've looked at EE4 and crafted the following citations for the widow's pension:
Declaration for Widow's Pension, 5 August 1918, Elizabeth H. Culmer, widow's pension application no. 1,125,358, W.C. certificate no. 873,872, service of John W. Culmer (Sgt., Co. G, 20th Wisc. Inf., Civil War); Case Files of Approved Pension Applications, 1861-1934; Civil War and Later Pension Files; Record Group 15: Records of the Department of Veterans Affairs; National Archives and Records Administration, Washington, D.C.
