Talk:FamilySearch Indexing: US Veterans Pension Cards, 1907-1933, FAQ

I have done "widow" cards and at the bottom it will say a remark about payments and they make a reverence to the certificate number and then it will say as "widow of " (there will be a different name than the soldier at the top of the card). Is this an alias or what do.

Occasionally on some cards there are two different death dates. One is written in the "Died" field and the other written on the stamp saying "Died .... Accrued order dated ... payable to (widow) ....." I've probably seen these dates different about a dozen times, sometimes one will have a line through it, but usually not. Does one of these death date fields have priority over the other?
