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.
