Notes

The library has a microfilm of the compiled service records of soldiers who served in the American Army during the Revolutionary War. See entry in the Author/Title catalog: United States. Record and Pension Office. Compiled service records of soldiers who served in the American Army during the Revolutionary War. (M881).

This microfilm publication reproduces the most comprehensive name index to American soldiers who served during the Revolution. The index also contains entries for several small series of Revolutionary War compiled military service records of sailors, members of army staff departments, and civilian employees--teamsters, laundresses, carpenters, and cooks--contracted to the American Army and Navy.

Each card of the index gives the name and unit of a soldier or civilian and sometimes his rank, profession, or office. The index may refer to more than one jacket envelope if a soldier served in more than one unit.

Microfilm of original records in the National Archives, Washington, District of Columbia.
