Subject: [GAMUSCOGEE] Pension Records - Muscogee
Date: Mon, 08 Apr 2002 15:56:43 -0500


Did anyone locate an ancestor in these files? It would be nice if you
transcribed the pension file, and then we could put it on-line for easier
reading and also so Search Engines would pick up the individuals listed
within the files.

This is an online database created by Georgia State U. which, at
present, has CW pension records for the following counties:

Appling, Charlton, Chatham, Macon, McDuffie, McIntosh, and Muscogee.


there is a menu on the left when you open up the site.

Just click
onto Muscogee County and find the name in which you are interested.

Believe them when they say that the names are not all in alphabetical
order--just enough to fool you into believing they are! The great thing
about the site is that it contains the actual script records which you
can print out right on your own computer thereby saving you a lot of
time and money to get a copy of the actual pension record. Excellent
source of marriage and death dates of veterans and their widows and much
more. I even found copies of a relative's marriage certificate and bill
for her funeral included!
It appears that all of the counties listed are not complete. I presume
that Muscogee County is since it has names from A though Y, but I didn't
see an indication otherwise.
DEFINITELY WORTH CHECKING OUT! (Recommended by Ruth Bentley and Emily O'Neal)
