Confederate Pensions

Confederate pensions are not included in the T288  (General Index to Pension Files) or T289 (Organizational Index to Pension Files) because these indexes only cover federal pensions issued by the U.S. government. Confederate veterans and their dependents were not eligible for federal pensions, since the Confederate States were in rebellion against the Union during the Civil War.
