In the following thirty years a new Confederate pension bill was introduced to almost all Legislative sessions. Added to the bill was a residency requirement, allowance for militia members and widows were added, financial qualifications were adjusted and rewritten, and the methods of payments and amounts of payment adjusted on several different occasions as the Bills were revised. Confederate pensions were awarded to residents of Florida regardless of the state where they served. The following Pasco County Florida extract from the State index is arranged in alphabetical order (the State index is done by application file number) First is the veteran's name, his unit of service, state of service (if other than Florida), widow's first and maiden name, county from which the application was filed, and the earliest year of application, file number and number of pages included in the file packet. Widow's application are filed with her husband and includes her full name, date and place of marriage, date and place of her husband's death, her place and length of residence in Florida, and proof of her husband's service. Some of the early applications include the widows' date and place of birth. Copies are available from the Florida State Archives for a flat rate of $7.50 per file. Both the veteran and widow are filed together. Make checks payable to: Department of State Mail to: The Florida State Archives R. A. Gray Building Tallahassee, FL 32399-0250.
