=== Muster Roll 1804 ===
The muster roll of H.M 94th Regiment of Foot (Scots Brigade) for 25th June 1804 to 24th Dec 1804 is [https://search.fibis.org/frontis/bin/aps_browse_sources.php?mode=browse_components&id=418&s_id=178] available on the FIBIS database], as transcribed by Cathy Day. It recorded when the regiment was in camp near Futtypore ([[Fatehpur]]), India. On a few occasions, comments from the next muster (24th June, 1805) have been added. This is only when a soldier has died during the next muster period.
Where a man's name is followed by the words 1st or 2nd, they refer to two men having the same name, and are used to distinguish between them. The numbers were included in the original document. At this period, soldiers did not have individual, permanent regimental numbers to identify them. The numbers after the names do not necessarily indicate that the two men with the same name were related.
