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 and after the Civil War these activities were intensified, particularly as they related to fulfillment of municipal recruitment quotas and determinations of entitlement to state aid, bounties, and other benefits.  This series, consisting of letters and lists from selectmen and justices of the peace to the adjutant general, identifies enlistments from the cities and towns into the U. S. Navy.
