				  After the death of her husband,  Elizabeth applied 					for a Widow's pension which she was awarded.  She 						signed her application in a handwriting style that 						looks much like old english calligraphy in comparison 					to the almost modern-day style of the clerks who wrote 					the deposition.  
				  She recieved the same pension as her husband, $80 per 				year, until her death around 1840.
