To supplement the meager armed forces, most early 19th-century farmers and craftsmen were required by law to serve in local militia units the forerunner of todays National Guard. Fall militia musters often saw the various militia companies of several towns coming together for a regimental muster. These would have been grand spectacles with townspeople coming out to view visiting militia companies in their dashing uniforms. Come and join us for our fall muster day and cheer on your favorite militia company!
