Scope and Content: The adjutant general of the Commonwealth, as executive administrator of the state’s Military Establishment, has been responsible for maintaining and reporting data concerning militia strength.  During the Civil War these activities were intensified, particularly as they related to fulfillment of municipal recruitment quotas and determinations of entitlement to state aid and bounties. This series identifies recruits credited to specific municipalities in fulfillment of their respective recruitment quotas, and is based on information provided by deputy provost marshals of recruitment districts.
Arrangement: Arranged alphabetically by municipality
Notes: An explanatory note in the Archives control file, prepared ca. 1920 by Frederick W. Cross, military archivist, refers to four volumes that were likely bound into one as this series
