These soldiers & sailors can be found on the Public Record Office Online Catalogue and the documents would have to be obtained at the PRO Kew:-

For really early Mylor Documents search the PRO's E179 Database - this details documents relating to the taxation of lay people in England between c.1200 and 1688 at the PRO - Heath Tax, Poll Tax and the like - but you'ld need to go to Kew to see the documents.
