Alphabetical List of Officers and Men of the Frigate Queen of France (1780). A partial alphabetical list of 90 Officers and Crew of the frigate Queen of France assembled from a statement of all the claims which have been adjusted and allowed at the Treasury Department, and for which certificates of registered debt issued, in virtue of a law entitled “An act providing for settlement of claims of persons under particular circumstances barred by limitations heretofore established” passed on the 27th of March, 1792. Most of the claimants represent the last crew of the Queen of France prior to her scuttling associated with the siege of Charleston which resulted in the surrender of over 5,000 American soldiers and sailors on 12 May 1780. Each man’s rate, date the claim was adjusted to and amount of claim is noted. Many of the claims are adjusted to 15 July 1780, presumably the date of their parole.
