Pennsylvania Soldiers in the War of the Revolution, Surnames C
[The following alphabetical List of Soldiers of the War for Independence has been compiled chiefly from the Depreciation Account books in the office of the Auditor General of Pennsylvania. It is difficult to distinguish between those of the Line, the Association, Rangers, or Militia and many of them, no doubt, appear in the rolls already published; yet it has been deemed proper to print this list as it is. It contains nearly ten thousand names, and, as will be seen hereafter, but a small proportion of those heroes who gave us the heritage of liberty and free government we enjoy.]
