Footnote.com has Revolutionary War Collection FREE through 7 July

...
I received this in an email from Justin Schroepfer at Footnote.com today:

"I wanted to let you know that we will be opening the Revolutionary War Collection free to the public tomorrow. This will be open through July 7. The collection features some of our most popular titles including the Revolutionary War Pension Files. You can point your readers to www.footnote.com/revolutionary-war to access the records in this collection. I appreciate if you could let your readers know of this special promotion."

Here is a screen shot of the Revolutionary War Collection (accessed through "Browse Collection" and then "Colonies and Revolution to 1815"):



The FREE Revolutionary War databases available include:

* Final Payment Vouchers Index for Military Pensions
* George Washington Correspondence
* Revolutionary War Prize Cases - Captured Vessels
* Revolutionary War Rolls
* Revolutionary War Service Records
* Revolutionary War Pensions

This is great news for those readers who do not have a Footnote subscription! I urge you to take advantage of this offer if you have Revolutionary War soldiers in your ancestry.
