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.
This is the first in a series of volumes of transcribed Virginia war records from the Revolutionary War time period. Volume 1 includes complete transcriptions of three of the celebrated Virginia "War Volumes," along with many Virginia petitions from the Revolutionary War era. Since most of these records have never been published, this book will be a valuable addition to the libraries of Virginia genealogists and historians.

This survey of Prince William County, Virginia, patriots and pensioners, drawn from the county court minutes and other source records, identifies many Prince William veterans and their units. It offers researchers greater insight and familiarity with the men who took part in the various eighteenth and nineteenth century conflicts. Part I: The French and Indian War period (1752-1769) presents an overview of the law in relation to Virginia's militia, examines the French and Indian War, and offers insight into the court's responsibilities relating to the militia. Part II: The Revolutionary War period (1775-1784) examines the transition from a colonial militia to a continental army. Part III: The War of 1812 period (1804-1806, 1812-1814) provides a historical introduction to the war and gives details of the officers and men who fought in the war. Part IV: Prince William pensioners (1833-1850, 1853-1856) presents an overview of pension law from 1778-1856, and identifies men from their pension applications or their service records. The first appendix is a partial listing of Prince William soldiers and officers in the French and Indian War. The second appendix details Elijah Green's struggle to obtain a Revolutionary War pension. The third appendix deals with the men in the 1803-1814 militia's slave patrols who were members of Colonel Enoch Renno's 36th Regiment of Virginia, muster rolls for the 36th and 89th Regiments of Virginia in the War of 1812, and Major Townsend Dade's court martial proceedings (1806).
