War of 1812
Capt. Robert Maloney Company
Transcribed and submitted by
Stevie Hughes
The following is a transcription of the Muster Rolls and Pay
Rolls of Captain Robert Maloney's
Company, War of 1812. The Muster Rolls are more or less in
alphabetical order. The Pay
Rolls are first by Rank; then by alphabetical order. Many of the
names are often difficult
to read because of the age of the document, the microfilming
process and the printed copy
that I received from the Tennessee State Archives (Roll No. 2,
MF#1459, 1812, pp 51-55).
The transcription below relies on both documents to fully
capture each name.
Captain Robert Maloney was a tailor by trade, and at the time of
the War, he lived in the town of
Greeneville. He also maintained a farm in northern Greene County
near the Cross Anchor area. Many
of his recruits lived in or near this area. When the Civil
Districts were later created in the year 1836,
the Cross Anchor area, about three miles north of town, was
situated in Districts 11 and 12.
The dates of service were from October 14, 1813 through February
8, 1814, inclusive. These
dates of military service are to be presumed, unless otherwise
annotated. Men who did not
serve their full term will have their discharge date and
explanation following their name. The men
were paid based on their Rank. If their pay was prorated because
of an early discharge, their
pay will also be annotated following their name.
NAMES IN BOLD ARE KNOWN FAMILY MEMBERS OR THOSE OF INTERMARRIED
FAMILIES. |
