Muster Roll of Discharged Officers and Disbanded Soldiers and
Loyalists
TOWN OF DIGBY
May 29, 1784
This list has been compiled from several sources.
As the spellings of the names varies from list to list the one
used here is the one most frequently found.
The Muster Roll was a census used to establish how
many settlers had to be provided for. In addition to the information
shown here the actual roll also indicates the following, numbers of
males, females, children under 10, children over 10 and number of servants.
Those marked with a * had their petition for provisions denied.
In the preamble to the actual Muster Roll it is stated that there were
some claims that were so unreasonable that the names were not inserted
in the list. The abbreviation DO means Discharged Officer and DS means
Discharged Soldier
