Dear Ms. Meyer,
Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
We searched the National Archives Catalog and located the record series Index to Final Pension Payment Vouchers, 1818 - 1864 in the Records of the Accounting Officers of the Department of the Treasury (Record Group 217). A full color image of the index card is available in the file unit He, Image 520. This series is an index to the record series Selected Final Payment Vouchers, 1818 - 1864 in Record Group 217. Only the vouchers for Georgia and Delaware have been digitized and available in the Catalog for this series. For more information about the non-digitized records, please contact the National Archives at Washington, DC - Textual Reference (RDT1) at archives1reference@nara.gov.
Next, we located the series Case Files of Pension and Bounty-Land Warrant Applications Based on Revolutionary War Service, ca. 1800 - ca. 1912 in the Records of the Department of Veterans Affairs (Record Group 15), that includes a case file for Simeon Herrick. These records have been digitized and are available using the Catalog.
