A partial list of the men and officers serving under Captain John Outwater from General Stryker's papers in the NJ Archives,   General Stryker was the Adj. General of NJ in the late 1800's. He amassed the material for his "Official Register of the Officers and Men of New Jersey in the Revolutionary War". These names were taken from the list he had compiled of the men who served under each captain. His sources are not known, however, all errors here are probably mine in the transcription.  Remember, that under the "Class System", where each company was divided into 4 classes, when men were called out, one or more from each class was called and formed into a composite unit. Therefore, each man served various periods under many officers during the 8 years of the war. This list also includes those who served in during the time Outwater commanded a company of state troops.

Notice the many Bergen County family names listed. Also realize that not all of these men were from Bergen County- some enlisted from other counties- Lt. Catterlain was from what is now Warren, NJ, in Somerset County, for instance.The Horse men listed probably were used as messangers, or occasionally as scouts.
