Scope and Content Note
This original manuscript of the Balloting Book, which relates to the allotment of bounty lands in the Military Tract in central New York, was severely damaged in the 1911 Capitol Fire and is closed to researchers due to its fragile physical condition. Instead researchers should use the published version found in Series A0476, Register of Military Bounty Lands Grants (The Balloting Book, and Other Documents Relating to Military Lands, in the State of New York), 1825.
