Texas Confederate Home guards aging Confederate widows
The Texas Confederate Home at Austin on the Colorado River fosters elderly veterans and their wives or widows. The facility houses 124 residents, 69 staff, and a 92,000 dollar annual appropriation with a 620,000 dollar property value. Residents, many widows, live in cottages and receive food, clothing, medical care, and occasional furloughs, while veterans draw pensions and some travel free on railways. The article notes long lifespans and attempts to honor Civil War service, with both men and women contributing to daily life.
