The examples were very helpful and seeing the pension office photo was interesting. Thanks for all these great webinars!\n\nI am simply amazed at the Civil War knowledge that Jill Morelli demonstrated in the webinar. She must do extensive historical reading on each veteran, which she has researched. Great webinar and thanks for demonstrating what records are available.\n\nI have been searching Civil War pension records at NARA for about a year. I learned so much from this webinar. Her presentation style was excellent.\n\nI have gotten record on my soldiers, however this lecture added so many items that I never thought of. More research to do!\n\nI learned a great deal.\n\nI learned a lot about resources available that I was unaware of. GREAT JOB!\n\nI learned a lot about the pension files. I have Civil War ancestors, however, have not ordered the files because I did not want to be disappointed if the information was only relating to their service. So, I have learned that there is much more information relating to the person and family than I expected. I will definitely be ordering my soldiers pension files. Do you think you would have enough information to make this an ongoing series? Perhaps more tips, research, or file informatoin? Thanks\n\nI really enjoyed the webinar, learned a lot to give me new ways to supplement the research I have already done. Jill is a wonderful speaker!\n\nI'm glad to know how to read pension records.
