Roll of Men on the Frigate Hague’s Final Cruise (May 1783)

The following list of 255 of officers and men of the Continental Navy frigate Hague’s final cruise was compiled from the 17 volume collection of “Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors of the Revolutionary War. A Compilation from the Archives” first published by the Massachusetts Office of the Secretary of State between 1896 and 1908. The collection is available online with digital recognition through the auspices of the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and is also accessible through Ancestry.com. The roll has been arranged according to rate or quality on board the vessel if identified in the records and includes all those who services were paid off on 10 May 1783. Some select few were paid for service after that date to as late as August 1783. Those whose service is noted to have ended prior to 10 May 1783 are assumed to have died in service on the date noted and their service paid off although each case has not been individually confirmed. Those whose rate or quality was not identified in the records have been listed last and noted as unidentified. There may also have been supernumeraries or volunteers whose presence on the vessel was not included in the pay receipts noted in the archives.
