Sources for the Muster Roll

This table is the source table for the information found within the Muster Rolls. Regarding Nos. 1, 4, 5 – the copies I obtained were very light, so difficult to read. In addition, in the roles it would list 9 mos men, but gave a “do” for the date and at the top of the column it many times read 1777. I suspect that the clerk just rushed and didn’t realize that 200+ years later we could read that as being 9 mos men that were continually serving.
