Revolutionary War Officers

Description (from source site)
The result of an act of Congress, this collection of Revolutionary War officers constitutes one of the most complete databases of its kind. With over 14,000 listings, this collection includes not only those who served in the Continental Army, but also many who served in the various state militias during the war. The men are organized by rank, with the signers of the Declaration of Independence also included. Each name is shown with the state in which they were born and the state in which they died, with dates showing each event respectively.
