Burklows in the Military

A reminder: the spelling here will most likely represent that taken from the military record, perhaps directly, or from someone's compilation. It does not necessarily represent the preferred spelling by the individual, his family or his descendants.

This military data is extracted from several sources and then compared with other data to help determine identification, including age where it was not recorded at the time of enlistment. In some cases, a soldier's service only came to light when he filed on his own behalf, or when a widow, father, or dependent applied for a pension on behalf of their deceased spouse, son or relative. It is not intended to emulate any particular online or published listings.

Some abbreviations used- "NG=not given"; "AFP=applied for pension"
