The Archives and Information Services
Division of the Texas Sate Library and
Archives has completed Phase 0 of the
Republic of Texas Claims Preservation Project. During
the past two and a half years, these historical records
from the republic era have been microfilmed and
painstakingly indexed by the staff. These audited
republic claims include those for payment,
reimbursement, or restitution, submitted by citizens to
the Republic of Texas government from 1835 through
1846. The records include supporting documents such
as vouchers, financial accounts, military records,
receipts, notes, and letters. The index (2,200 pages) is
now available at http://www.tsl.state.tx.us/lobby/rc and
the microfilm can be ordered on interlibrary loan. The
index features not only the primary file names, but also
the names of any other individuals mentioned in those
files. (From "Trails," the newsletter of the Texas State
