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.
