Military Records
Confederate
Indigent Families Index
On November 24,
1863, the Texas Legislature passed a Joint Resolution stating that the
government pledged "support and maintenance of [the soldiers'] families
during their absence from home." In accordance with this Resolution, an "Act
to Support the Families and Dependents of Texas Soldiers" passed on December
15, 1863. The Act set aside $1,000,000 annually to be paid the "families,
widows, and dependents of soldiers currently serving in State or Confederate
forces, or of soldiers killed or disabled in service." Chief Justices of the
counties, on or before March 1 in 1864 and 1865, submitted lists of
servicemen and the number of their dependents eligible for relief. The
County Clerk administered the money distributed to the county for this
purpose.
