War Pension Application of Hannah Topping, Accomack County, VA, 30 Aug 1851 - Hannah Topping (formerly Hannah Simpson) a resident of this county aforesaid, aged eighty eight years, who being first duly sworn according to law, doth on her oath, makes the following declaration before me a justice of the county and state aforesaid, that she is in consequences of old age and bodily infirmity being nearly blind and unable to appear in court to make her declaration in order to attain the benefit of the Acts of Congress passed July 1838.
