Hi: This was sent along by Clif Hinds in a lovely long file of Hinds odds and ends which I will be sending to the list a little at a time. If any of the rest of you have a file you would like to share - send it to me and I will break in down into separate messages. I'm sending his info below on colonial military soldiers. You can find more information about the soldiers below by sending into the National Archives for the military form - the number of which escapes me at the moment. It is found at the National Archives site. If any of you have sent for any of these military records - would you consider sharing it with our mail list. I would like o get some conversation going concerning these people.
