*The information concerning the issuance of warrants carded on this form is found in volumes 2 to 4 of "Land Warrants Issued Prior to 1800" which are 
registered of bounty land warrants issued to non-commisioned officers and privates under congressional resolutions of September 16, 1776 and subsequent
dates.  Other records relative to the applications for warrants appear to have been destroyed in the War Department fire of November 9, 1800.
Information concerning warrants surrender to the Federal Government is to be found in General Land Office records in the National Archives.
