Andrew applied for his Civil War Confederate pension; he was disabled from a gunshot wound to his upper right arm which rendered the arm basically useless. He was denied the pension for many years because he had signed an oath of allegiance to the United States in order to get released from prison at Nashville. He was receiving no medical aid for his injured arm and feared he would die if could not get home. One of Andrew's commanding officers was his first cousin, Capt. Alfred C. Pippin who later died in a skirmish in 1864. Andrew was eventually approved for the pension, but died before he ever received it.
Andrew had at least nineteen children by his two wives.
