Widows Pension Files

We have found only a single drawer of Widows Pension Packets.

There are any or all of 4 different forms in each packet:

1. Application for Aid Under the Mothers' Pension Act
2. Report of Probation Officer (who seems to be that township's supervisor)
3. Testimony (typed questions by the judge and answers by the applicant)
4. Order Allowing Pension. This Order also says on the face of it "In the Matter of the Application of _________ for Relief under Widow's Pension Law".

Almost all the packets have the 1. Application and the 2. Report of the Probation Officer. Only a few of the older Applications have the 3. Testimony, and only a few have the 4. Order.

Sometimes the award ($4 or $5 per child under 14) is merely written across the front of the Application or the Report of the Probation Officer, often without award date.

Occasionally one finds a cover letter from the Probation Officer or some other person asking that consideration be given to this particular woman's application because she is so needy and so worthy.

We also have two books at the Archives:
Probate - Widow's Pension Fund, 1916-1926
Probate - Widow's Pension Fund Book A, 1919-1932.

I have not compared the 180 packets with entries in these two books, but some of the packets say "Recorded in Bk. A, page ---", so there should be records in the books that correlate with some of the packets.
