Notes on Rose Blankets Used During the American War for Independenceby John U. Rees
Peter T. Curtenius, the local Commissary through whom the Province of New Yorkmade all military purchases, wrote to the Provincial Congress in summer 1775 thatsuitable blankets were getting difficult to find. He was reduced to purchasing one point
blankets, which had to be sewn together to provide proper soldiers' blankets, so heinformed the congress that he had bought double the usual amount, wanting to avoidsquabbles over the bill he was soon to submit. Curtenius also had available to himoversized rose blankets, of 9 and 10 quarters size (that is, 81 inches, and 90 inches), toolarge for convenient soldier use. It is not clear if he actually purchased them. CaptainHenry Beekman Livingston's 1st Company of the 4th New York Regiment did receive27 Indian blankets and 45 rose blankets in August 1775. We can infer that this was
typical for the 1775 establishment. Two years later, "Colo: Lamb's Regimt: Artillery tothe Public Store of Cloathing at Albany," delivered to Captain Mott, 3 April 1777, "4Rose Blankets... (and) 2 Blue D(itt)o:"
Commissary Peter T. Curtenius to the New-York Provincial Congress, 28 June 1775. Journals of the Provincial
Congress of New-York, vol. II (Albany: Thurlow Weed, 1842)

Notes on Rose Blankets Used During the American War for Independenceby John U. Rees
On 3 October, 1777 General George Washington's troops "began their march forGermantown ...” Captain James Morris, 5th Connecticut Regiment, recalled in his 19thcentury pension deposition:
“I marched with only my military suit, and my implements of war, without any change ofdress or even a blanket ..." During the post-battle American retreat from GermantownMorris was captured by British soldiers, "and marched back to Germantown under a
guard." His waiter made his escape, taking with him Captain Morris’ blanket and provisions with a canteen of whiskey ..."That night having had no refreshment and "noblanket or any covering to shield me from the cold," he asked a sympathetic Britishofficer for assistance. After being given some food he was brought "a large and clean
Rose blanket ... for my use that night, I accordingly went out into the field, and lay downamong the soldiers who were prisoners, wrapped myself in the blanket, kept my hat onmy head, and slept soundly through the night..."

“RUN away from the subscriber, the 16th of February last, two Virginia born
Negro men slaves, of a yellow complexion, about 5 feet 8 or 9 inches high;had on when they went away Negro cotton waistcoat and breeches, shoes and stockings, and osnabrugs shirt, and took with them several other clothes, and
five Dutch Blankets. One named CHARLES, is a sawyer and shoemaker by
trade, carried with him a set of shoemaker tools, is about 28 years of age, speaks slow, can read, and may probably procure a pass and get on board
some vessel. The other named GEORGE, about the same age, is round shouldered, which causes him to stoop when he walks; they are both outlawed.
Whoever brings, or safely conveys, the said slaves to me, in the upper end ofCharles City county, shall have 5 l. reward for each, if taken in this colony, if
out thereof 10 l.”CHARLES FLOYD.

"But to return to our subject: no time was lost; we struck whilst the iron was
hot, fixed Mr. Cocke off with a good Queen Ann's musket, plenty of
ammunition, a tomahawk, a large cuttoe knife, a Dutch blanket , and no smallquantity of jerked beef. Thus equipped, and mounted on a tolerably good
horse, on the ___ day of April, Mr. Cocke started from Cumberland river,about 130 miles from this place, and carried with him, besides his own
enormous load of fearful apprehensions, a considerable burden of my ownuneasiness.”

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bedding-blankets 150/182
A "maude" (or Cloak) was proposed for the equipment of British Light Infantry, butevidence that they were actually issued and used has proven elusive. Were they a greatidea that never got off the drawing board? Nevertheless there is some scant evidence oftheir use by British troops.
Thomas Pennant, touring the Lowlands of Scotland:At Langholme, Dumfries-shire. On the Ewes Water, north of the Solway Firth. “The manufactures of Langholme, are stuffs, serges, black and white plaids, plains andmostly sold into England.”
At Ruthewell, now Ruthwell, on the Solway Firth coast of Dumfries-shire:“At a few miles from Dumfries, leave on the left, Bardanna and Kier… Travel over
small hills, either covered with corn, or with herds of cattle, flock or (sic) black-faced sheep, attended by little pastors, wrapped in their maides, and setting the seasons atdefiance.”

Doctor William Blair (1798):"A light blanket, which might be rolled up and carried on the knapsack of the foot-
soldier, would add considerably to his health, and but little to his baggage. The regimentcalled the Scotch Fuzileers formerly carried an appendage of this kind, termed a maud."

Captain Charles Cochrane, 4th Regiment of Foot, 1st Battalion of Light InfantryTo Archibald, ninth Earl of Dundonald.
“New Jersey, Brunswick, 8th March, 1777...We have had rather a disagreeable winter of it. The light infantry, with which corps I
am, have been much harassed during the winter, and are miserably ill lodged; my wholecompany, which consists of 53 men, are obliged to live in one small room, and I am in a pigeon-hole, with 11 officers, where we eat, drink, and sleep. I don’t believe a man ofthis army, ever since the affair of Tronton [sic], where the fatal security of the Hessiansbrought us into that sad scrape, have had their clothes off; for my part, except one
fortnight, I have not been uncased these ten months. I have a Galloway plaid, which Jack sent me; this, a blanket, and a skin of a bear, is my principle baggage and bed. It is
the healthiest and most agreeable life in the world, could one divest themselves ofreflection, and have no eye towards futurity, or the main chance...Ch. Cochrane.”
