The names that follow were commisioned officers from the Battle of Worcester, which took place on September 3rd, 1651. Duke Hamilton refused medical attention from any but a Scottish Physician and died in custody shortly after the battle. It is estimated that of the 16,000 strong Scots Army, 3,000 were killed on the battlefield, between 7 to 10 thousand captured on the battlefield, and most of the remainder shortly thereafter as they fled. An estimated 2 to 6 thousand prisoners were deported to Colonial possessions in the New World, to work as forced labor. We are still searching for another alleged official government list, rumored to be those actually deported to the North American mainland colonies in the hopes that it will inform us of individual destinations.
