MUSTER ROLL OF
CAPTAIN CHARLES BULKELEY’S COMPANY OF
RANGERS

The author found this muster-roll, with other valuable papers, in an old tea-chest in the attic of a colonial house at Littleton, Mass., now owned by a collateral descendant of Capt. Bulkeley. In this house Major Robert Rogers and his officers once spent the night, while the privates were quartered in the church near by.

Captain Bulkeley served first in Phineas Osgood’s Company in their expedition to Nova Scotia, and later in Robert Rogers’s Rangers. He was killed by the Indians near Rogers Rock, on Lake George, on March 13, 1758, and forty-seven of his men with him.

 

This muster-roll of Captain Bulkeley’s company, and other lists which I shall include in a larger work, are the only lists of Rogers’s Rangers known to exist.
