This is the authoritative roster of the officers and soldiers of New Jersey who served in the Revolutionary War, containing upwards of 15,000 names arranged according to organization and rank. Over 500 pages are devoted to lists of officers and men in the State Troops and Militia, and it also contains lists of officers and soldiers of the "Jersey Line" of the Continental Troops, of the New Jersey Troops in the Continental Army, and of miscellaneous organizations. In addition to name and rank, the rosters usually indicate the soldier's county of origin and sometimes date of discharge or death and service record. Researchers may also wish to purchase the separately published Index to Stryker's Register of New Jersey in the Revolution, now available from Clearfield Company (see Item 4055).

The Official Register of the Officers and Men of New Jersey in the Revolutionary War is also available on our Family Archive CD 7518.
