military muster rolls--how to handle entries listed as losses during the month

HalFields · April 30

Military muster rolls often include a list of names at the bottom which is called "Losses for the month". These are names of people that were in the unit during the month, but left for some reason (desertion, transfer, discharge) before the muster date, the last day of the month. My question is: do I create entries for these people? My batch number is Image Name106271274_01143Batch IDM9NL-RTH.

Yes please. In the Project Instructions, What to Index, bullet point 1 we read "Index all military records".

Thanks for asking!!
