I am looking for references that the British Americans were dutifully obligated to serve in the England's military when England conquered other nations. The references must be prior to the revolution and after the 1st settlement in the colonies in the early 1600’s.

If British Americans were not dutifully obligated to serve in the English military, then they were not in fact “natural born” English subjects, but subjects of a different class such as denizens aka inhabitants not afforded political status of full subjectship.
