This affidavit was found in the civil war pension records of William Mitchel Moon. It was written by George Blazer who served in Co. M of the 2nd Tn Cavalry. From reading this affidavit I learned that George M. Blazer and William M. Moon were brothers-in-law. He states in the affidavit that they married sisters by the name of Patterson and lived about 4 or 5 miles apart.
This is an amazing document. I just stumbled upon it by chance. Cornelius was my Great Grandfather from his son George Washington Patterson (my Grandfather). Thanks for posting.
