The Battle of Vernon, Florida was a minor skirmish of the American Civil War that took place on September 28, 1864, near the town of Vernon, Florida.
 Coming a day after the larger Battle of Marianna, this conflict involved a company of Home Guard troops from Vernon who were going to the aid of their Confederate compatriots in that city.
 Unbeknownst to the Southerners, their route had taken them straight toward the withdrawing Federal column under Brigadier General Alexander Asboth, which was returning to their main base at Pensacola after their victory at Marianna.
 The two forces met on a wooden bridge across Hard Labor Creek in Washington County; refusing to heed Union demands to disperse, the badly-outnumnered Floridians chose to resist and were quickly defeated, with most of them being taken prisoner.
Field Marshal George Hay, 8th Marquess of Tweeddale (1 February 1787 – 10 October 1876) was a Scottish soldier and administrator.
 He served as a staff officer in the Peninsular War under Arthur Wellesley and was with Wellesley at the Second Battle of Porto when they crossed the Douro river and routed Marshal Soult's French troops in Porto.
 Hay also saw action at the Battle of Bussaco and at the Battle of Vitoria.
 He later served in the War of 1812 and commanded the 100th Regiment of Foot at the Battle of Chippawa when he was taken prisoner of war.
 He went on to become Governor of Madras and, at the same time, Commander-in-Chief of the Madras Army, in which role he restored the discipline of the army, which had been allowed to fall into a relaxed state.
The Battle of Sabbath Day Point took place on 23 July 1757 just off the shore of Sabbath Day Point, Lake George, New York and ended in a French victory.
 The battle (actually better described as an ambush), pitched approximately 450 French and allied Indian forces under the leadership of Ensign de Corbiere of the Troupes de la Marine against 350 New Jersey Blues under the command of Colonel John Parker.
 Ensign de Corbiere, aware of Colonel Parker’s plan, ambushed and surrounded Parker's forces as they approached the shore in bateaux (shallow-draft, flat-bottomed boats).
 In the ensuing rout Colonel Parker lost approximately 250 men with nearly 160 men killed or drowned and the rest taken prisoner.
 The French reported only one man slightly wounded.
Ludovic Lindsay, 16th Earl of Crawford (1600–1652) took part in the strange plot of 1641 called The Incident.
 Having joined King Charles I at Nottingham in 1642, he fought at the Battle of Edgehill, at the Battle of Newbury and elsewhere during the English Civil War; in 1644, just after the Battle of Marston Moor, the Scots Parliament declared he had forfeited his earldom, and, following the lines laid down when this was regranted in 1642, it was given to John Lindsay, 1st Earl of Lindsay.
 Ludovic was taken prisoner at Newcastle-on-Tyne in 1644 , following the seven month Siege of Newcastle, and was condemned to death, but the sentence was not carried out, and in 1645 he was released by Montrose, under whom he served until the surrender of the King at Newark-on-Trent.
 Later he was in Ireland and in Spain and he died probably in France in 1652.
George Madison (June 1763 – October 14, 1816) was the sixth Governor of Kentucky.
 He was the first governor of Kentucky to die in office, serving only a few weeks in 1816.
 Little is known of Madison's early life.
 He was a member of the influential Madison family of Virginia, and was a second cousin to President James Madison.
 He served with distinction in three wars – the Revolutionary War, Northwest Indian War, and War of 1812.
 He was twice wounded in the Northwest Indian War, and in the War of 1812 he was taken prisoner following the Battle of Frenchtown in Michigan.
The Battle of Komsomolskoye took place in March 2000 between Russian federal forces and Chechen separatists in the Chechen village of Komsomolskoye (Saadi-Kotar), Chechnya.
 It was the largest Russian victory during the Second Chechen War.
 Several hundred Chechen rebel fighters and civilians and more than 50 Russian servicemen were killed in the course of more than two weeks of siege warfare.
 The fighting resulted in the destruction of most of the forces of Chechen rebel field commander Ruslan Gelayev.
 Scores of Chechens were taken prisoner by the Russians, and only a few survived.
 A number of civilians died from torture, and the village was looted and completely destroyed.
The Battle of Beaver Dams took place on 24 June 1813, during the War of 1812.
 An American column marched from Fort George and attempted to surprise a British outpost at Beaver Dams, billeting themselves overnight in the village of Queenston, Ontario.
 Laura Secord, a resident of Queenston, had earlier learned of the American plans, and had struck out on a long and difficult trek to warn the British at Decou's stone house near present-day Brock University.
 When the Americans resumed their march, they were ambushed by Native warriors and eventually surrendered to a small British detachment led by Lieutenant James FitzGibbon.
 About 500 Americans, including their wounded commander, were taken prisoner.
The Battles of Frenchtown, also known as the Battle of the River Raisin and the River Raisin Massacre, was a series of conflicts that took place from January 18–23, 1813 during the War of 1812.
 It was fought between the United States and a British and Native American alliance near the River Raisin in Frenchtown, Michigan Territory (present-day Monroe, Michigan).
 The battle on January 22 had the highest number of fatalities of any battle during this war.
Lieutenant-General Richard Stovin (died 1825) was a British Army officer during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.
 He originally joined the army as an ensign in 1780, and saw service in the American War of Independence, where he may have been taken prisoner after the Battle of Yorktown.
 After the outbreak of the French Revolutionary Wars, he saw service with a force sent to invade French colonies in the Caribbean, and was taken prisoner in 1794 at Guadeloupe.
 Released after two years in captivity, he later commanded his regiment in the Netherlands, in the Helder Expedition of 1799, and on garrison duties in the Mediterranean and in India.
 In the War of 1812 he was appointed to command a division in the forces in Canada, where an island in the St. Lawrence river was named after him.
Benjamin Franklin Graves (1771–1813) was a politician and military leader in early 19th-century Kentucky.
 During the War of 1812, Graves served as a Major in the 2nd Battalion, 5th Kentucky Volunteer regiment.
 Together with other officers, he commanded relatively inexperienced Kentucky troops in the Battle of Frenchtown (also known as the Battle of the River Raisin) in Michigan Territory.
 This battle had the highest number of American fatalities in the war: of 1000 American troops, nearly 400 were killed in the conflict on January 22 and 547 were taken prisoner.
 The next day an estimated 30-100 Americans were killed by Native Americans after having surrendered.
