notes

This roster for the company consisting entirely of Albany city residents has been printed in a number of sources. All are derivative of the transcription appearing in SH, volume II, p. 800. It has been transformed and presented here and retains most of the "original" spellings and formatting.

Daniel Van Antwerpen: Perhaps Daniel G. Van Antwerpen - maybe a city resident; or Daniel S. Van Antwerpen - more closely connected to Schenectady and/or the Mohawk.
