A Unique List - Bridgwater Militia Pay List of 1812
This list contains surnames only and are listed in original order. Firstly alphabetically and secondly how far (in miles – that being up to 40) each man marched. Information for each man is listed in columns.
Here is shown Entry No. 601 (out of 738) for James Gardner who trained for 20 days. His beer allowance is for 20 days. Allowance for Stationary Quarters is 14 days. His Marching allowance is for 30 miles to and from training ground. A private was paid 1s (1 shilling) per day.
James Gardner Private Militia Man
The Quarter-Master would pay the Marching Expenses, Stationary Quarters and beer money to the men themselves who in turn paid Innkeepers for their lodgings, diet and beer.
The list below is transcribed to the best of my ability and I can not claim this is totally accurate as some of the handwriting is difficult to read.
