1909 Montgomery County Confederate Pension List
After the Civil War ended the problem of disabled Confederate soldiers
and Confederate widows came before the Virginia Legislature several times.
In 1888 the Legislature approved payment of pensions of widows of soldiers
killed in action or who died in service and those who were severely maimed
while wearing the gray. In 1900, as the veteran population aged, some restrictions
were lifted. In 1902 requirements were further eased.
The procedure followed was that the veteran or widow filled out an application
for a pension. This pension was then presented to a local pension board
for review. If this board approved the pension, then it was sent to the
Auditor of Public Accounts for payment. The pension applications were not
kept at the county level. The Auditor of Public Accounts published a list
annually, by county, of the recipients of these Confederate pensions. This
is that list for Montgomery County in the year 1909.
The following list shows the name of the pensioner, and the act under
which they were drawing benefits. Contact the Library of Virginia for copies
of the actual pension application if desired.
