Hi Mike, "[21] A Pay Roll of Capt. Bigelow Lawrence's Company in Col. Walbridge's Regiment for service done in the alarm at Cambridge and Saratoga in July, 1781. <snip> Source is "ROLLS OF VERMONT SOLDIERS IN THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR 1775-1783" prepared and published under the direction of Major General Martha T. Rainville, The Adjutant General, Vermont, Camp Johnson, Colchester, Vermont, 1998, Volume 1, page 398. Would you like me to transcribe one of the 45 soldiers listed payroll? However, this is later than the timeframe you mentioned. Jan Jordan <<What units of Revolutionary War Albany County Militia (1776 timeframe) would have been from the Cambridge NY area? Would it make sense for someone from Cambridge to be in the 12th Reg. Albany County Militia, commanded by Col. Jacobus Von Schoonhoven from the Halfmoon NY area? Thanks, Mike>>
I'm not sure of the timing, but at one time, Albany Co. encompassed a much larger part of NY state than it does today. A check on the early county formations and their dates might be of help. --- "Jan J." <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Mike, > "[21] A Pay Roll of Capt. Bigelow Lawrence's > Company in Col.
