John Ford served as a Private in Capt. John Wilkinson's Co., Virginia Militia, during the War of 1812. In 1880, Anna Ford, John Ford's second wife, attempted to claim his pension due for service in that war. Unfortunately, she died in October of that same year and the pension was never granted.

In her affidavit for the pension claim made in Kosciusko Co., IN on 06 May 1880, Anna Ford, aged 75, gave the description of John Ford as being 5-feet, 10-inches tall, light complexion, sandy hair and blue eyes. She states she married John Ford at his residence "about five miles South of Warsaw, in Wayne Township, of said County, on or about the 14 day of January 1842 by one Orange V. Lemmon who was an Episcopal Methodist Minister." She further states that,

"On or about the year 1810, she moved with her father Joseph Spitler from Virginia to Fairfield County in the State of Ohio near New Lancaster said County and State, where she resided with her said father until on or about the year 1825 when she married David Peterson at the age of 22 with whom she resided in the said Fairfield County, Ohio until the year 1834 when she removed with the said husband David Peterson to Wabash County in the State of IN, where she remained until the year 1838 when she removed with her said husband David Peterson to Kosciusko County, IN, Claypool Post Office where she resided until on or about the year 1841 when her husband David Peterson died. "

In 1880, she gave her residence as "five miles East of Plymouth, in the County of Marshall in the State of Indiana."
