This announcement was made by the TSLA yesterday:

"The Tennessee State Library & Archives is pleased to announce that the
index
to Tennessee Confederate Pension Applications is now available on our
web site.

Tennessee Confederate Pensions were first offered to
soldiers in 1891. In 1905 Confederate widows became eligible. The
files
created by the Pension Board include original applications with data
about
the soldier's life and service. Many files also contain correspondence
and
other paperwork related
to the claim.

The index is found at:
