Revolutionary War Transcription Project

 

Help transcribe military pension files from the Revolutionary War

The stories of over 80,000 men and women who lived through the American Revolution are waiting to be told. Will you help us tell them?

In celebration of the upcoming 250th anniversary of American independence, the National Archives and the National Park Service are collaborating on a special project to transcribe Case Files of Pension and Bounty-Land Warrant Applications Based on Revolutionary War Service, ca. 1800 - ca. 1912. These Revolutionary War Pension Files consist of applications and other records pertaining to claims for pensions and bounty land warrants.
