Among the books selected for inclusion in this collection, you'll find biographies and genealogies for thousands of individuals who fled to Connecticut following the Battle of Long Island in 1776 and an index to claims filed by New York residents who served in the War of 1812. In addition, you'll find a comprehensive report by the State Historian that identifies every person listed on muster rolls between 1664 and 1775. This list is especially useful because nearly all of the original muster rolls for colonial wars were destroyed in a 1911 fire at the state library.
