This list was received today from the State Archives and I thought it would be interesting to post the information here for any that may be interested. Happy Hunting. The list represents only one such compiled listing of slaves enlisted into the Continental Battalions during 1778. If you would like the PDF version, please feel free to write me off list, thanks.
