"Interfiled within the index are many applications that were based on death or disability that previously formed a part of the 'Old Wars' pension series. Also the Bounty Land Warrant numbers are included as shown in the card index. There are cross-references to files in other series, towit; War of 1812, Old Wars, Indian Wars & the Civil War. The Mexican War pension files contain family history questionaires"--Introd.
The library has the National Archives microfilms (T317) used in preparing this index. See entry in the Author/Title catalog: Mexican War index to pension files, 1887-1926.
"The index to Mexican War Pension Files was prepared from records located at the National Archives in Washington, D.C. The Mexican War series of pension applications are for claims based on service performed in 1846-1848. An act of Congress approved 29 Jan 1887 and continuing through 1926 provided pensions for veterans who had served sixty days or their unremarried widows"--Introd.
