Scope and Contents

Georgia law required that the county grand juries periodically inspect the pension rolls to ascertain that all pensioners' claims were legitimate. In this series are the reports to the Pension Office of these inspections. Included in many instances are the lists of pensioners provided by the Pension Office for the convenience of the grand juries. In some cases letters of transmittal are included. Most of the presentments have been found for many counties.
