Research Notes
"In going over all evidence, nothing is found to prove a death date and place, or, in fact, the place and date of birth" in the original DAR application.
The NSSAR application that was submitted thereafter was simply based on the original DAR application. New Applications would need to re-prove the sources. It is encouraged to review the supporting documentation submitted with the initial application.
This John Pratt was listed in the DAR application as father of Leonard Pratt.
