The foregoing list was intended to include the names of all the soldiers of the Revolution who were buried in the old Dutch churchyard, but owing to the fact that no stones now mark the graves of some o them, and the evidence of their burial place not being ascertained until too late, some were unavoidably omitted which are well entitled to a place there with the others. Among the number are another John Van. Tassel, Abraham Acker, Hendrick Roraer, Sr., John Paulding, son of Joseph and kinsman of the Captor, Thomas Wildey, and doubtless several others.

While those whose names are upon the stone appear to be specially honored, in a larger sense the monument is dedicated to the memory of all the patriot soldiers of this Manor, wherever they may have found their last resting place, and in keeping with that thought and purpose the roster is presented as fully as may be, on the following pages.

It has not been possible to designate with the publication of this list the times, and places, and organizations in which even the officers so named served during different enlistments,* and much less to properly place each soldier whose name appears upon this roll. It has been made upinpart from Femow's "New York intheRevolution," published by the authority of this State, with many added as the result of personal investigations made in the archives at Albany and Washington, the old pension rolls disclosing several new names. But after all this labor the list is doubtless still incomplete, the original muster rolls having disappeared.
