Dear List Members,

I am trying to locate a list of cntractors, suppliers, or some contracts
to provide alcohol for the Chesapeake armies in the American Revolution.
I have found salt  contractors, wagon contracts, clothing contracts --
everything except alcohol contracts or suppliers.  I've examined Erma
Risch's work on *Supplying Washington's Army* carefully, but have come up
"dry".

Does anyone have any suggestions of either where I might locate contracts,
a list of suppliers, or suggestions of secondary sources which might guide
me?  I would appreciate any recommendations.

Thank you,

Sarah
