The National Archives and Records Administration does have the surviving military service records for Confederate soldiers. However, the National Archives has no Confederate pension records in its files. To order these, you need to contact the state from which the Confederate soldier served.
Tamie Dehler has written an article in the Terre Haute Tribune-Star that gives details. She lists addresses for each state. Some states have the index to pensions online, although not all of them have such online resources. Tamie gives both online and offline addresses at http://www.tribstar.com/cnhi/tribstar/history/local_story_304132138.html.
Part one of her article is available online now with part two promised for next week.
