I am researching this family and would like to exchange information with others. This John Robert Austin was born about 1819 in Virginia and married Nancy Elizabeth Mills in Floyd Co., VA about 1854. They had a large family, one of which was my husband's grandfather William Thomas Austin. John Robert Austin was a veteran of the Mexican War. He died in 1879 and is recorded on the 1880 Floyd Co., VA Mortality schedule. His widow, Nancy Mills Austin applied for his Widow's Pension and their children along with birth dates are listed on this application. Nancy died after the 1900 Floyd co., VA Census. Ruth M. Austin,
