The compiler of this information did a Search all records in Mills County in the Confederate Pension Application Files on file at the Texas State Archives,
Texas State Electronic Library (TSEL) is a project of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission
The compiler found that there are 252 Pensions Applied for. Not all were accepted or sent to soldiers or their widows in Mills County, TX. . Not all Veterans applied for pensions so this is not a complete list of those living in Mills County that served in the Civil War. There are instances where the soldier applied and was rejected but the widow applied later and was approved. The Compiler has added burial location and membership with the Jeff Davis Camp #117 to those that are known:
