This work is essentially a compilation of articles that deal wholly or in part with muster and pay rolls, court order books, pension records, land claims, depositions, petitions, militia lists, orderly books, and service records. The majority of the articles focus on the records of the colonial and Revolutionary War periods, but there also are some that relate to the War of 1812. In the aggregate these comprise data of almost unequaled variety and magnitude. Produced over the years by an army of specialists, they were spread throughout the three periodicals named in the title. This varied and immense body of data is brought together in a handy and well-indexed volume, which will make its use by the researcher very easy.

Originally published in 1913, this book forms the second part of a two-volume biographical register of Christ's College, Cambridge, covering the period 1666 to 1905. The text was begun and left almost complete by John Peile (1838-1910), an English philologist who was Master of Christ's from 1887 until his death. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Christ's College and its history.
