Lee Anne Center wrote, "Does the Library of VA have VA Civil War military and pension files, or do I have to go to the county to get that?" The Library of Virginia does, indeed, have a large and very valuable collection of Confederate pension records as well as records for some Confederate veterans' homes and for disabled veterans. Go to the Library's Web site, open the "Site Index" in the left margin, and from the alphabet select the letter M for Military Records.
