Every Friday we're pleased to offer Legacy Family Tree Webinar subscribers a new bonus webinar just for them! This Friday enjoy "Researching Your Mexican War Ancestor" by Craig R. Scott, CG, FUGA. If you're not a member, remember the webinar previews are always free.
Researching Your Mexican War Ancestor
The Mexican War was of short duration. Yet records like muster rolls, payrolls, enlistment records, medical records, and history were created during the war. More records were created after the war in pension and bounty land records. Each record leads to another as the story of your ancestor is unraveled in these military records.
