STATE OF NEW JERSEY,
Executive Department,
Trenton, June 1st, 1870.
A record of Jerseymen who took part in the military service of this country during the Revolutionary War has never been compiled. Having been informed that you have collected certain lists of the heroic men of that period, you are hereby directed to prosecute, as far as possible, your researches, with the clerical force of your office, and report the result to me. If successful, your labors will give new interest to the annals of this State, and perpetuate the names of the soldiers who fought in that early struggle.
