X-ray observations of selected SNR are summarized. Five contain internal spinning neutron stars–four isolated and one in a binary system. Another seven contain central unresolved sources or bright nebulae. Observations of these nebulae, probably due to synchrotron emission, are used to estimate characteristics of the unseen pulsars.
