Clarissa Partridge was born in 1829 in New York.

I would like to extend thanks to William and Joanne Sholes of California.  They have sent me some valuable information on Jeremiah's line which has corrected many pieces of information we previously had posted  incorrectly.  There are also some very interesting documents from them that are posted in .pdf format as follows:  Family Group Sheet for Jeremiah Schryver, Request from the Bureau of Pensions for vital statistics, Declaration for widow's pension, Letter from Jeremiah in regard to Clarissa's request for support,  Letter to Clarissa denying her request for one-half of Jeremiah's pension, Jeremiah's affidavit that he can not read or write, Jeremiah's declaration to receive a pension,  Document granting Jeremiah a pension increase to $8 per month and Clarissa's declaration.
