As you have seen from the sentences from page one the sentences were hard, and will be the same for these men on this page. Many young man were looking for adventure and what better place then the high seas. Only to find the rules hard and the work very dangerous and soon found this was not the kind of adventure they were looking for. A few men singed up only to get to one place to other then would jump ship. As you look over the dates of enlistments you will see a lot signed up in December and January these were some of the coldest months of the year. I can not prove it, but I believe some men signed up only to have a place out of the cold. You have to remember there was little work and very little money so many men had no place to go. What better place to go then on a ship were there was free food and clothes, a warm bed and some pay.
Note. This page will cover the names beginning with M. through Y, you will also note that the count will start off from where it stop on page one.
Note. The information of these two pages talks a lot about being drummed out of garrison or service to the ( Rogue’s march. ), I have hear of this march before but never heard the music, so I look into it and found this great site that is full of Revolutionary Music. Two of the songs that are played at this site is the ( Rogue’s march ) and the ( Tattoo .) which are talked about on these two pages. http://www.fifedrum.org/crfd/CRFD6.htm

Men Of The United States Regiments.
There were thousands of men in the service and hundreds of regiments so I could only pick a few of these good men. The reason I pick these men was of the good information that was behind the name. As a surname researcher the name is the most important thing but unless you have some information to go with it, its useless. All the names here will give you a good lead into your family’s members history.
Bad book keeping?
As I research for names I found many names were put on the records as being deserted from their regiment. But later the charges were drop as it was found that they had been sick, captured or killed. Many times the Commanding officer would make out a report and sent it on to head-quarters but when the rider got where the head-quarters was to be, he found it had moved some where else. Many records were captured in battle and lost so when you find a record that states that your family member had deserted do not believe it till you have all the records you can get, even then there will always be the question if it was true. I also found that many men were commission to a higher rank but were never mustered into service. Many men would serve at the higher rank for many years and only to be paid at their lower rank and it would take an act of Congress to set it right. You may have a family story that states that GG-grandfather was a colonel or what ever but the records says other wise, so again its important get all the records you can find you never know the next one may sit every thing right.

Bad book keeping?
As I research for names I found many names were put on the records as being deserted from their regiment. But later the charges were drop as it was found that they had been sick, captured or killed. Many times the Commanding officer would make out a report and sent it on to head-quarters but when the rider got where the head-quarters was to be, he found it had moved some where else. Many records were captured in battle and lost so when you find a record that states that your family member had deserted do not believe it till you have all the records you can get, even then there will always be the question if it was true. I also found that many men were commission to a higher rank but were never mustered into service. Many men would serve at the higher rank for many years and only to be paid at their lower rank and it would take an act of Congress to set it right. You may have a family story that states that GG-grandfather was a colonel or what ever but the records says other wise, so again its important get all the records you can find you never know the next one may sit every thing right.
