I just sent away for the 1760 Muster Roll of the French-Indian War for Joseph Bumpas.
Today I received a copy of the index card for his participation (A Return) from the MA Archives. (I could scan and post this somewhere if anyone is interested.)
The card gives his age as 30, Birthplace as Wareham, Residence as Wareham. The Commissary of Musters, states that "said Bumpass and others were attested; mustered Mar 27 and delivered to Mr. Micah Sprague" (the person who enlisted him.) The muster rolls of the MA Archives is vol 98, page 13.
If I read the LAB records correctly, this Joseph b. 5-1-1729 is the son of Jeremiah Bumpas and Jane Lovell. He married both Ruth Reed and Mary Haskins.
