Hi Sandra, I can only answer your question in regards to my family. Two of the Mundays boys were loyalist. They were forced , according to testimony they gave in NB. Canada , into the Colonist Army. They joined under duress , but continued to spy on family, friends, and neighbors for the British. Finally they were caught, and under court orders lost everything. They both fled to New York City and at the end of the war sailed to Canada. All records with the exception of the court records were destroyed by the Colonist, and possibly the British. The only way I could retrace them back to Am. was by papers submitted to Britain for financial assistance. They were listed in the Stryker book. Most of my loyalist lines simply came back across the border into Am. at the end of the Rev. War. Till Later, Dulcie Anna Not to know what happened before we were born is to remain perpetually a child. For what is the worth of a human life unless it is woven into the life of the ancestors........unknown Sandra wrote: -----Original Message----- From: Sandra Naehrig [mailto:snaehrig@magnet.ch] Sent: Monday, March 20, 2000 2:30 PM To: NJMIDDLE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [NJMIDDLE] Stryker's Men and Officers I need some help with a book. I have written down two titles and don't know if they are the same book, possibly two different editions or if they are two different books. Can someone please help me? I have "Manual of the Men and Officers of New Jersey who served in the Revolutionary War" by William Stryker and Official Register of the Officers and Men of New Jersey who served in the Revolutionary War" by Wm. Stryker. Does Stryker only list Patriots or are Loyalists included too? Thanks for any explanation. Sandra
