When looking at the British muster rolls of the Revolutionary War of 1775 - 1782, I find a number of notations of "Prisoner within the line" or "Prisoner without the line". In the case at point, a British soldier was cited as "Prisoner within the line" in one muster roll, and "Prisoner without the line" in the next muster roll. In between the two muster rolls, he was married. Does anyone know the official meanings of the "Prisoner" statements? Fred
