On April 25, 1898, the U.S. Congress declared war on Spain. Two days
before, President William McKinley had issued a call for 125,000 volunteers.
The Spanish-American War saw the nationalization of the Texas Volunteer Guard,
which was organized into four regiments of infantry and one of cavalry, and
designated the Texas Volunteers. A truce was signed in August, and a treaty
formally ending the war in December 1898. The Texas Volunteers were
de-nationalized in late 1898, and the Texas Volunteer Guard was reorganized on
April 1, 1903 as the Texas National Guard.
An act of the U.S. Congress was approved on July 8, 1898, entitled
"An Act to reimburse the governors of States and
Territories for expenses incurred by them in aiding the United States to raise
and organize, and supply and equip the Volunteer Army of the United States in
the existing war with Spain." This act was amended by another act of
Congress (approved March 3, 1899), and paralleled by an act of the 23rd
Legislature of Texas (approved June 1, 1899). Simply put, the individual
claimants would submit claims against the State of Texas, which would in turn
submit claims against the United States government.
These records consist of circulars, general and special orders,
related printed matter, records of personnel, quartermaster and ordnance
records, records of payments for service, and claims files, all relating to the
Texas Volunteers which were mobilized for service in the Spanish-American War
of 1898. The records date 1898-1904 (bulk 1898-1901).

Records of personnel,
1898-1901, 0.52 cubic ft. |
|
These records consist of regimental returns, descriptive lists of
recruits, an officer's index, reports on officers, lists of rejected men, and
petitions for demobilization, dating 1898-1901. |
|
The regimental returns are seven oversized returns from the
following regiments of Texas Volunteers: the 1st Infantry at Jacksonville,
Florida (July, 1898) and Miami, Florida (August, 1898); the 2nd Infantry at
Mobile, Alabama (May, 1898) and Miami, Florida (June, 1898); and the 1st
Cavalry at Fort Sam Houston, Texas (June-August, 1898). Information contained
on each return includes the following: stations of companies and names of
company captains; numbers of officers and enlisted men present and absent, both
by status (e.g., "sick") and by rank; alterations
(gain/loss) since the last monthly return; numbers of horses; absent enlisted
men accounted for by name; a record of events; the commissioned officers
(names, ranks, stations, and remarks); and alterations among enlisted men
(name, rank, company, date, place, and remarks). |
|
The descriptive lists of recruits, some on pre-printed forms and
others on handmade forms, cover most of the companies in the 3rd Regiment of
Texas Volunteer Infantry, and most of the troops in the 1st Regiment of Texas
Volunteer Cavalry. Information contained on the forms varies, but normally
includes the following: name, rank, age at enlistment, height, complexion,
color of eyes, color of hair, where born (town or county, and state or
kingdom), occupation, and enlistment data (when, where, by whom, and for what
period). Other occasional information includes: residence, number of miles
travelled from residence to place of rendezvous, marital status, name and
address of parent/guardian/nearest relative, and to what date last paid. Pencil
notations usually state "Indexed." In addition,
there are wrappers listing names under the heading "correspondence, applications, etc." for each of the four
infantry regiments and the cavalry regiment (dated 1898), plus other wrappers
that list by name the descriptive and assignment cards of recruits assigned to
the 3rd Texas Infantry since the original muster. |
|
There is a volume labeled "Index, Texas U.S.
Volunteers, 4th Texas Infantry," with additional notations:
"Officers recorded in officers' roster--for officers and
enlisted men see muster rolls;" and "Index No.
3." This alphabetical index gives only name and county. |
|
The reports on officers include two documents. One is a list of
infantry officers from all four regiments, giving company, city, name, rank,
and comments (e.g., "excellent," or
"good, promoted to major," or "incompetent, lazy and intemperate."). The other is a
report in chart form on officers of the 1st Infantry, dated October 1899;
information includes: name, company, rank, regiment, whether a graduate, name
of educational institution, whether formerly a member of the Texas Volunteer
Guard, and whether an officer in the Texas Volunteer Guard, or rank on April
20, 1898. |
|
The lists of officers and men rejected by the U.S. Medical
Examiner, dating 1901 but referring to the mobilization of troops in 1898,
includes information that varies from list to list: name, rank, residence, date
enrolled (or date of assembly at rendezvous), date of rejection, number of
days, rate of pay, and amount of pay. Several, in fact, are in the form of a
payroll. |
|
There are two petitions for demobilization or mustering out of
companies (both dated September 1898), on the grounds that the war was nearly
over. One was addressed to the Adjutant General of Texas, the other to the U.S.
Adjutant General but forwarded to the Texas Adjutant General. These lists of
signatures included 103 men of Company C, 3rd Texas Volunteer Infantry, and 92
men of Troop A, 1st Texas Volunteer Cavalry. |
|

These records are arranged by type of record. Regimental returns

Records of payments for services,
1898-1904 (bulk 1901-1902), 1.20 cubic ft. |
|
These records consist of eleven letterpress books containing
records of pay of recruits, in two groups, dating 1901-1902. The first group of
letterpress books are actually receipts for pay vouchers, with a cover letter
stating: "Enclosed herewith I hand you a receipt [sic]
filled out to cover the amount due you by the State of Texas for pay from the
date of assembly of your troop....Please sign the receipt below and write your
Post Office address...and a check will then be mailed to you for the amount
named therein....Thomas Scurry." This is followed at the foot of the page
by a receipt: "Received from Honorable Joseph D. Sayers,
Governor of Texas, the sum of $_____ in payment of the amount due me, [rank,
company, regiment]. [Signature]." |
|
The second group of letterpress books record the actual payment,
stating: "Enclosed herewith please find check No._____ on
the Austin National Bank for $_____ in payment of the amount due you for
service...." These volumes have indexes, by the letter of the company
rather than the name of the soldier. |
|
In addition, there are a handful of documents relating to payments
for other services relating to the Spanish-American War, dating 1898-1904.
These include a memorandum for the routing of troops to Austin; payrolls for
clerk hire, night guard, and labor necessary for transferring camp equipage to
the U.S. Volunteers; and a bank statement for 1901. |
|

These records are arranged by type of letterpress book, and

Claims,
1898-1901, 1.91 cubic ft. |
|
An act of the U.S. Congress was approved on July 8, 1898, entitled
"An Act to reimburse the governors of States and
Territories for expenses incurred by them in aiding the United States to raise
and organize, and supply and equip the Volunteer Army of the United States in
the existing war with Spain." This act, amended by another act of
Congress (approved March 3, 1899), and paralleled by an act of the 23rd
Legislature of Texas (approved June 1, 1899), constitute the enabling
legislation behind this group of Adjutant General's records. Simply put, the
individual claimants would submit claims against the State of Texas, which
would in turn submit claims against the United States government. The
researcher can find circulars and rules for the preparation and settlement of
these claims in the Texas Volunteers (Spanish-American War) records' series
Military orders and related printed matter,
described elsewhere. |
|
These records consist of two types of Spanish-American War-related
claims files, dating 1898-1901. The first of these are claims by the State of
Texas against the United States, which were presented in 12 installments
between 1900 and 1901. A typical installment package includes cover letters
from the Treasury Department, Office of Auditor for the War Department in
Washington, D.C., to Adjutant General of Texas Thomas Scurry; abstracts of
vouchers; statements of differences; and explantations. |
|
The second type of claim file is the individual claim presented to
the State of Texas, which formed the basis for the first type of claim. A
typical individual claim file includes correspondence concerning the claim;
cover letters; affidavits; vouchers; and receipts for payment of the claim. |
|
Arrangement |
|
These records are arranged by type of claim file. Claims by the
State of Texas are arranged numerically, by installment. Individual claims are
arranged alphabetically by name of the individual or business. |
