WO 13/1645 - Musters of the Northumberland Militia,
1781-82Introduction
The Militia Act of 1757 provided for men to serve in the militia at
home in order to counter any threat arising when the majority of
the regular army was stationed abroad. Lists of eligible men in
each parish were known as militia ballot lists and from these, the
men actually chosen appeared in the militia lists which are often to
be found in county record offices. At the Public Record Office,
however, are to be found the muster and pay lists (series WO 13)
and enrolment lists (WO 68). The initial lettercode of the PRO
piece number relates to the department in which the document
originated (here the War Office). The first number indicates the
series, which is a collection of documents of the same type. After
the oblique stroke (slash), the other number refers to the actual
document within the series. The full reference is required if you
wish to order this particular item to be seen at Kew.
There were ten Companies of Northumberland Militia commanded by
the following:
Colonel Lord Algernon PERCY Lt Colonel Matthew BELL
Major Anthony SURTEES Captain Edward DALE
Captain William DAVISON Captain William DENT
Captain Thomas KING Captain Robert READHEAD
Captain Hawdon Philipson ROWE Captain Joseph WOOD
Some men transferred between companies and this was mostly
documented in the papers. A small number of men disappeared
from the Muster with no indication of their fate. In these cases,
there is an X in the Muster columns. This is particularly evident
with Captain Davison's third Muster, where there was no list of
discharged men but records of more than twenty men from his
Company are missing.
The papers for the third and fourth musters of Captain Dale are
missing.
In this document there are records of four Musters:
1) All Companies met at Southsea on 08 September 1781 and
recorded service from 25 December 1780 to 24 June 1781.
All Musters were signed by Thomas Sadleirs, Commissary
Musters and W Johnson, Mayor of Chichester.
2) This Muster was held at Romsey on 22 March 1782 and at
Southampton on 23 March 1782 and recorded service from 25 June
to 24 December 1781.
Colonel Percy's, Lt Colonel Bell's, Captain Davison's,
Captain Dent's Captain Readhead's and Captain Wood's
Companies met at Southampton.
Major Surtees', Captain Dale's, Captain King's and Captain
Rowe's Companies met at Romsey.
All Musters were signed by Thomas Sadleirs, Commissary
Musters.
Colonel Percy's, Lt Colonel Bell's, Captain Davison's,
Captain Dent's, Captain Readhead's and Captain Wood's
Musters were signed by Edward Noble, Mayor of
Southampton.
Major Surtees', Captain Dale's, Captain King's and Captain
Rowe's Musters were signed by William Biggs, Mayor of
Romsey.
3) Most of the Companies are seen to have met at Chatham on 02
September 1782 and recorded service from 25 December 1781 to
24 June 1782. The bottom of Captain Davison's Muster Roll has
been cut off, removing the section with the date and place of the
Muster. Captain Dale's muster is missing completely.
All Musters were signed by Charles Masson, Commissary
Musters.
All Musters but that of Captain Davison were signed by S
Nicholson, Mayor of Rochester.
Captain Davison's Muster was signed by William Emmett at
Wyacton.
4) This Muster was held at a variety of places from 27 January to
26 February 1783 and recorded service from 25 June to 24
December 1782. Captain Dale's Muster is missing completely.
Colonel Percy's, Lt Colonel Bell's, Captain Readhead's and
Captain Wood's Companies met at Morpeth on 23 February
1783.
Major Surtees' and Captain Davison's Companies met at
Hexham on 24 February 1783.
Captain Dent's Company met at Tweedmouth on 27 January
1783.
Captain King's and Captain Rowe's Companies met at
Alnwick on 26 February 1783.
All Musters were signed by William Ker, Commissary
Musters.

WO 13/608 - Musters of the Durham Militia,

men actually chosen appeared in the militia lists which are often to

wish to order this particular item to be seen at Kew.
There were six Companies of Durham Militia commanded by
the following:
Colonel Earl DARLINGTON Major John TAYLOR
Captain James BENNING Captain Thos CATHERICKE
Captain Robert HUTCHINSON Captain Robert ROBINSON

Benning was transferred to take charge of his Company. Lieutenant
Viscount Lord BARNARD of Captain Benning's Company was
promoted to captain on 20 March 1782 and took charge of Captain
Benning's company.
Some men transferred between Companies and this was clearly
stated on the documents; others seem to have been discharged from
one Company only to reappear as enlisting in another. Most of
these have been identified and the second entry eliminated but
there are a few that cannot be positively identified, either because
the name is too common or because there were two potential
candidates, so in those cases the second entry has been left.

and recorded service from 25 Dec 1780 to 24 Jun 1781.

Other indexes available
(i)
My main project for the past five years has been to index entries in the
Criminal Registers in Series HO 27 at the PRO. My interest in and
knowledge of the Public Records started following the discovery of a great
great great grandmother, Hannah Mayes from Leicestershire, who was
sentenced to transportation in 1825. She had stolen a sovereign and five
shillings' worth of half-pence. Having found an entry for her in the Criminal
Registers in Series HO 27, I started to transcribe these and have so far
published on microfiche and disk thirty volumes of indexes, starting in 1805
and covering the whole of the country. I have a database currently growing
towards 70,000 entries.
(ii)
"PRONames 1", "PRONames 2" and "PRONames 3" are indexes to
miscellaneous personal names occurring in documents at the Public Record
Office. Each collection is available on microfiche and disk and contains over
10,000 records from a variety of sources. Entries are sorted alphabetically by
surname and several personal details are given for each record as well as the
full PRO document reference number. You should be lucky enough to find
somebody in here whose name can be found on your tree!
(iii)
Everybody has a relation who served in the First World War and, with 1998's
release of Naval ratings' records of service, let us have a look at the members
of the senior service. PRONames 2 incorporates a list of casualties from the
Battle of Jutland in 1916 - both killed and wounded. These entries have been
expanded from the PRONames format and compiled into a separate
publication - The Jutland Roll of Honour, which is also available on both
fiche and disk. It lists all those appearing in the Admiralty Registers of Killed
and Wounded but a cross-check has also been performed on lists published
during the War. Each man's fate is shown and several supplementary lists are
included to record notes and discrepancies. Details and dimensions of each
ship at the Battle are included as well as a record of its casualties.
(iv)
Courts Martial and Executions is a database of 493 records, amalgamating
and cross-referencing lists found at the PRO. Two documents have been used
to compile this index. Firstly, WO 93/49 includes a list compiled for the War
Office of each man actually executed by sentence of court martial, 1914-1920.
This contains 326 names including colonials and gives rank, name, initial, unit,
theatre of operations, date of execution and remarks. Secondly, the class list
for WO 71 has been used. This gives the name, year, type of court martial and
offence.
(v)
Criminal Lunatics is a database of 614 records, indexing the names of all the
patients recorded in a document referenced HO 20/13 at the Public Record
Office. This is a very interesting book which reads from both ends. At the
front is the register of Bethlem Hospital with much more than just the names
of the patients. At the other end, is a list of Criminal Lunatics from around the
country who were held in County institutions or occasionally who were
released into the custody of individuals.
(vi)
Cornwall Railway is a database of 457 records, listing and indexing the
names of all the men employed by the Cornwall Railway at the time of its
take-over by the Great Western Railway Company on 15 June 1889. The
basic information from PRONames 2 has been expanded to record the men's
names, occupations, places of work and wages or salaries (from the Engineer
at £900 per annum to the mason's lad at 4s0d per week); the dates of entering
service (for the officers & clerks and the Traffic Department) and dates of
birth also for the officers & clerks.
(vii)
Prisoners Pardoned (Series HO 13, from 1782) will help to get you back
before the early nineteenth century in a series almost as important as the
Criminal Registers themselves. Copies were kept of the Home Secretary's
correspondence relating to prisoners and their supporters in the
Criminal Entry Books. Each original volume, covering approximately a year,
contains a contemporary listing, usually alphabetised by surname of those
involved, in sections relating to pardons (free and conditional), references,
remissions, respites and warrants particular. The indexes are being released in
volumes corresponding to the originals. Details given are name, alias, court,
notes, type of record and PRO reference. The whole of England & Wales is
covered in each volume.
