If you notice on that image that there is an X next to the entry, apparently an enumerator error. That is why there is no further info nex to it as there is with the ones with check marks next to them

Reading the info below, i do not know how Juda fits in.Unless he married her after his wife Jane died.
Hopefully when you get the pension file it will explain it.

I did find

The Civil War pension index shows a Juda Wallen as the widow of William J. Wallen of Company "L" 8th Tennessee Cavalry (USA). It was filed for on March 19,1887 in Germany.
Application Number is 352151
Certificate Number is 241531
No invalid pension appears to have been applied for.
