    Where are you seeing 2020? Also, this list is widows, not veterans.

      My fault, I meant to type widow and fumbled it and now I can't edit it.

    These wives were not alive in 1865.

  Yep, my mom (still alive) remembers seeing many interviews with Civil War vets when she was a kid in the 40's.
