Pensions 1908-1909

Index to pensions created from Queensland State Archives [Registers of Old Age Pension Claim](https://www.archivessearch.qld.gov.au/series/S6578). The records are held at [Queensland State Archives](https://www.qld.gov.au/recreation/arts/heritage/archives). Old age pensions were paid by the Queensland Government from July 1908 when the "Old Age Pensions Act of 1908", 8 Edw VII no.6, came into force. In July 1909 the Commonwealth Government began paying old age pensions and payments by the state government appear to have ceased about June 1909.
