The following is an announcement from the New England Historic Genealogical Society:
Service in the militia or regular military generated a large number of records valuable to genealogical research. This brand new CD-ROM brings together several previously published, but difficult-to-find books:
The Military History of the State of New Hampshire, From Its Settlement in 1623, to the Rebellion in 1861 by C.E. Potter; Rolls and Documents Relating to the Revolutionary War, Volumes 1-4 by Isaac W. Hammond (volumes 14-17 of the New Hampshire State Papers series); and Revised Register of Soldiers and Sailors of New Hampshire in the War of the Rebellion, 1861-1866 by Augustus D. Ayling, adjutant general of New Hampshire.
This valuable collection contains militia rolls, company rosters, unit histories, descriptions of battles, and biographical sketches from conflicts from among the colonial through the Civil War. From these records you may be able to cull details on illness, disabilities, death or desertion, exact residence, literacy, physical traits and more.
