Notes
These records relate to Americans taken prisoner by British forces during the Anglo-American war of 1812-15. They were generated in the course of the administrative process of receiving, clothing, housing and feeding prisoners of war, then keeping track of them as they passed through the prison ship and depot system until they were finally discharged, exchanged or released (or in some cases, until they died while prisoners).
Introduction by Ira Dye, University of Virginia.
