Do you have any information on Maria A. B. Pons who married John Seymour Pickett?I Can't find a marriage record in the Catholic records for them or in "The People of East Florida During the Revolutionary War - War of 1812".Maria tried to get a widdows pension, as Seymour Pickett fought in the War of 1812, but, it wasn't approved.The paper was in such condition as unreadable they said.She had two wittnesses that acknowledged that she was the wife of John Seymour Pickett, but it was still not approved. Seymour Pickett was previously married to Rebecca Collier who drowned, and they had one daughter named Rebecca.I will post the family below:
