    1. [A-REV] Massachusetts Militia and Volunteers
    2. Brian Jones
    3. Does anyone know the make up of the Massachusett's Militia and Massachusett's Volunteers. Were they made up of regiments, companies or platoons? I am particulary looking for a reference to Stebbin's company of Brewer's Regiment or should that read Brewer's Battalion? Also I note from the Institute of Advanced Loyalist Studies list of regiments at http://www.royalprovincial.com/military/rlist/rlist.htm the following information: Battalion Years of service Type Massachusetts Militia Bagaduce 1779 -1783 Militia Boston 1775 Massachusetts Volunteers 1777 - 1783 Militia (New York) Can someone please help with the reference Militia (New York) does this mean the MA Volunteer Corps were based in New York? Also does Bagaduce, Boston mean the place name where the MA Militia Battalion was raised? I would appreciate any information on these two units particulary anything on the muster rolls. TIA Best wishes, Brian Bristol UK http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/j/o/n/Brian-Jones/
