John Shelby's company militia stationed on frontiers of Fincastle County under the command of Col. William Russell 1776 Francis Queen entered 28 July discharged 24 Septr. pay per day 1/4 no. of days 59 3.18.8 (I believe that this is a total in colonial monetary terms)

As a matter of clarification, the pay per day is 1 shilling and 4 pence. The total for 59 days is 3 pounds, 18 shillings and 8 pence. There are 12 pence in a shilling and 20 shillings in a pound. --Phil Minch-- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charlton Queen" <safetyman45@adelphia.net> > > Francis Queen > entered 28 July > discharged 24 Septr. > pay per day 1/4 > no. of days 59 > 3.18.8 (I believe that this is a total in colonial monetary terms) >
