DearREADERS,
Being curious about the "1890" for Pulaski County, Kentucky, I
went to the site and found the following notation:
1890 Special Schedule,
War of the Rebellion Survivors & Widows,
Pulaski County, Kentucky
Most of the 1890 population schedules were badly
damaged by fire in 1921, & subsequently destroyed. None exist for
Kentucky. However, most of the Special Military Schedules still exist,
including those for Pulaski County, Kentucky.

I clicked on "Patterson, Daniel" in the index and was
presented with the scanned image of the page where Daniel is listed with the
rank of private, Company (A or H?) 7th Kentucky Infantry. You'll note the
other columns list his date of enlistment, date of discharge and length of
service. Thankfully, the top of each page states the source of the
document as follows: "Pulaski Co, KY 1890 Special Schedule: War of the
Rebellion Survivors & Windows. NARA Film M123, Roll 3. Donated
to the USGenWeb Archives by V. J. Davis, Oct 1999." I then
printed out the page by clicking the printer icon on my web browser tool
bar.
THANKS to the USGenWeb Census Archive Project! You'll a
save lot of time and money obtaining the document mentioning your ancestors --
