Biographical notes:

As chief executive of the territorial government, the Governor was empowered to act as commander-in-chief of the militia and to appoint militia officers below the rank of general and civil officers for counties and townships. Acting as the Governor's appointee, the Adjutant General preserved militia records, attended public military reviews, transmitted gubernatorial orders to military units, and reported to the Governor on equipment condition.
