Dear Ellen and all:

The US GenWeb Archives Project in under way at
http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/pensions/
The War Team Leaders are:

French and Indian War: Richard White
Revolutionary War: Tina S. Vickery
War of 1812: Valarie Crook
The Republic of Texas: Trey Holt
The Mexican War: Trey Holt
Civil War: Stacey L. Orchard
The French and Indian War: Stacey L. Orchard

As for the overall coordinator, I have stepped into the coordinator's role.

This project will endeavor to provide actual transcriptions of Pension
related materials for all Wars prior to 1900. Transcripts, extracts and
abstracts are being accepted and files are being placed in the USGenWeb
Archives directory of the State and County of principal residence of the
Pensioner. This project is in its infancy, but is growing with the
cooperation and participation of State County Coordinators, State Archive
File Managers, and the many other USGW volunteers and visitors.

Sincerely,
Tina S. Vickery
Assistant State Coordinator, Maine
County Coordinator, Hancock County, Maine
County Coordinator, Somerset County, Maine
CO-County Coordinator, Kennebec County, Maine
File Manager, VT Archives.
