This roster represents those officers who were represented in the Society at its founding in 1783. It was originally compiled by the tenth President, John Croper, from the list in possession of the Secretary-General and the original minute-book of the Society. The rank put opposite each original member's name is the actual rank without regard to brevets. This list was originally published in 1896. Corrections were made in 1983 (Dabney) and in 2008 (Davenport).
