Lists: I have "Soldiers of the King Phillips War" by George M. Bodge, Boston, 1906 Will start out with the roster of officers and gradually as time allows, send out the different companies in the Massachusetts Bay area which today include Mass.,Conn.,Maine, and NH. I realize this is very early for many of you but these folks were our early ancestors of descendants who later settled in the Conn River Valley area of Mass,Conn,Vt,and NH. [some later Mass>NH>Maine] It may be wise to set up a folder for this project and if you should find yourselves in the 17th century Mass Bay Colony, you will have the information on hand. I did not change any spelling , if you see [___]after a name, it's my suggestion only. - ---------------------------------------------------------- Roster of the Officers of the army of the United Colonies, as organized for the Narraganset Campaign, and mustered at Pettisquamscot,December 19,1675.
