Claudius Boatman’s entry in the records compiled in the Muster Rolls of New York Provincial Troops, 1755 – 1764, published in 1793 by the New York Historical Society. “Gloude Boutman” is on page 192. It is mentioned in the forward that records for the year 1757 were missing from the archives of the State of New York in Albany. I have attempted to look for any correlation to the Boatman family by comparing the names of the men born in France with Claudius, but have had no luck – anyone else want to take a shot at it?
