The
list of names below represent Pensioners in Georgia who have been dropped under
the act of May 1, 1820; prepared in conformity with a resolution of the House of
representatives of the United states of the 17th of December 1835. This is the only
known list published on the web. These names are valuable due to the fact early
censuses of Georgia were lost. These serve as a limited substitute.
Over 30,000 citizens of Georgia either applied for or received pensions or
applied for or received land under the Georgia Land Lottery. The vast majority of
the claims were rejected. The claims do show who was in Georgia at that time and
often where they lived.
