Chapter LIX - Record of the Service of Greenfield Men in the Revolutionary War
The Commonwealth of Massa chusetts has published ten volumes of the records of men serving to the credit of Massachusetts during the war for independence. The names are entered in alphabetical order, according to the spelling of the officers who made the returns. The same soldier may be entered under many different names. No index indicates the names of men serving to the credit of any particular tow or city, making it necessary to examine the names of thousands in order to find the representative of any particular town. Beside the ten volumes already issued, proof sheets of the eleventh volume are nearly completed. The unpublished list will fill some six or seven volumes and the names are in manuscript in the Public Archives. No person who is not familiar with the names which would be most likely to be found in the official list, can make any progress in the search for names of men belonging to any particular locality. The compiler of this work has felt that for the present an incomplete list can only be furnished, and as the history is to be electroplated, the list may be completed in a future edition which may be issued after the publication of the remaining volumes by the state.
In many instances the name of the town to which the soldier should have been creditied does not appear. In such cases, when the soldier served in a Greenfield company, the family name being common to the town and not claimed by other neighboring towns, the name is entered as Greenfield, with a suggestion that an error may have been made. -
