Civil War Pension Files
Confederate pensions could be requested by the veteran, and/or by his widow. If both filed there may be useful information in each, so order both. If the application was rejected, it will still include most of the same information as an approved application. An approved application may include additional information about the applicant's death and burial. Copies of the applications may be ordered from the Texas State Library and Archives Commission at a very reasonable price.| Claimant | App. # | Husband | Husband's # |
