The National Archives and the National Park Service are collaborating on a special project to transcribe Revolutionary War pension files.

You can help make these important records of the first veterans of the United States easier to find and read in our online Catalog!

Itā€™s easy to get started, and you can transcribe as much as little as you like. You can even search by state for records to transcribe!
