Fold3 Widows Civil War Pensions

[amybeth47]

Fold3 has not updated its Widows Civil War Pensions since May 2015. It has remained at 11% since that time. I sent them an email asking them when they plan on updating this database but only received a stock response that did not answer the question. I did not renew my subscription to Fold3 as a result. Does anyone know if they are still planning to update this database in the future since they were evasive when asked this question.

No idea about Fold3. Is there someone specific you're looking for?

My understanding is they are progressing state by state. I'm also not sure where their funding is currently at for this endeavor.

They usually offer a month free access to Civil War records every spring, wonder if that will continue, or did it coincide with the sesquicentennial ?

Texas can also be accessed online, but I don't have the link. I think it's through Ancestry.com.

Hello amybeth47, welcome to the forums.

I can't answer your question. But as huskerblitz mentioned, I think I've heard the same thing about Fold3 progressing state by state.

Thanks, everyone. I will ask at the National Archives when I go there in June.
