    There is a rejected Revolutionary War Pension application that was submitted by Brazil's children in the 1850s. The names of Brazil's children are confirmed in the pension application by an attorney.

    Name:
    Alternate Name Spellings:
    Braseal Estes
    Brizele Eastis
    Brizele Estis
    Brazel Estes

    Military Pension:
    After the death of their father, Charles Estes and his siblings made an attempt to recover any unpaid monies due to his father's estate for service rendered during the Revolutionary War. This is a copy of that rejected pension file numbered R3201. The attorney chosen to act on the behalf of Charles Estes was from the town of Proctor which in 1856 was within the boarders of Owsley County which was formed in part from Estill County in 1843. Proctor now lies within the borders of Lee County, Kentucky which was created in part from Owsley County in 1870. The five "surviving" children of Brazil Estes are named in this document.
    In addition to this rejected pension, Brazil gave a declaration in court in Clay County, Kentucky stating that he knew Thomas Philpot during the Siege of 96 in South Carolina. The court found that sufficient evidence was presented to proove that Thomas Philpot had served in the Revolution and that Brazil Estes was of sufficient age to have been in the Revolution. The NSDAR recognizes Thomas Philpot as a patriot ancestor and he is recorded as Ancestor Number A205976. Attached to the record of Brazil Estes, I have included only those select pages from the Thomas Philpot pension file that pertain to Brazil Estes.

    Civil War Veteran Celebrates Ninety-First Birthday

    Heidelberg, March 16th
    Asberry ESTES, better known as "Uncle Add", celebrated his 91st birthday at his home here yesterday. He is one of the two Civil War pensioners left in Lee county.

    Mr. ESTES had one of his old comrades among the 28 guests at the dinner in his honor, Robert D. HOUP, of Jessamine county. Mr. ESTES' oldest living child, 65, was present for the dinner. The youngest member of the family present was a great-grandchild two months old. Mr. ESTES' family consists of three children, 33 grandchildren, 101 great-grandchildren, and nine great great grandchildren.

    Mr. ESTES was born in what is now Estill county, on the waters of Buck Creek, a son of Charles and Martha ESTES and a grandson of Brazil ESTES who was a soldier in the Revolutionary War. His mother was a daughter of John HATTON who lived years ago at the mouth of the hollow which bears his name down which the State highway runs. His mother was born near Beaver Pond, Clark county. His parents were buried in the old Brandenburg graveyard near the Baptist Church in Heidelberg.

    He had a brother, Hiram, who was buried on his 97th birthday, February 28, 1933. Uncle Add was a member of the 8th Kentucky Regiment in the Civil War and despite his age his steps are firm and his memory excellent.

    Never at any time, Mr. ESTES said, had he lived more than 15 miles from the place of his birth, and never during his 91 years has he been a party in a law suit or had a writ served on him. His wife, who was a sister of Godfrey and John NEWTON, died several years ago. More than four score and ten years of peaceful life without serious quarrel with friend or neighbor leaves Mr. ESTES with host of friends who wish for him "Many more happy returns of the day."

    Birth:
    Asberry's death certificate states that he was born in Owsley County however, Owsley County was created June 1st, 1843 so technically, Asberry was born in another county; probably Estill.
