John Green as he believes, but not sure because the col o s were frequently changed from one Regt. to another, the Brigade was commanded by Genl. Peter Manglesburgh, that he entered the service as a Lieut. on the 11 th (as he believes) of June 1777 and served until the end of the war was captured at Charles Town on the 12 th of May 1780. and was released from that captivity on the 10 th of July 1781. That he has lost or mislaid his com- mission and cannot produce it, but that he is confident that the rolls of they are still in the war office, will show that he was a Lieut. as set forth above, that he was promoted to a capt's command

in the last arrangement in the year 1781. That he is old and infirm being afflicted with the Rheumatism, that he is in reduced circumstances and stands in need of aid from his government Sworn to & subscribed before me this 10 th day of July 1818

Their object was to demand of Governor Dunmore the restoration of the Arms and Ammunition, which he had taken from the Magazine in Williamsburg Virginia - and in the State Service (Virginia) for one year in 1776 the Regiment then called the 1st Virginia Regt. in Capt. John Fleming's Company then commanded by Col. Patrick Henry, William Christie, Lieut. Col. William Wood. He took the test Oath at Williamsburg Virg a on the declaration

On my recovery I enlisted with Capt. John Nelson who com- manded a Troop of Cavalry in the Reg t of Dragoons commanded by Col. Theodore Bland, we marched, and joined the Northern Army in January 1777 Head Quarters then at Morris Town State of New Jersey for service this Winter was hard, in attending the Genl s on their Reconnoitering Parties & acting as Pickets on the British lines. In the month of June in the year (I think on the 11 th ) I was appointed a 9 th Lieutenant in the 9 th Virginia Reg t . I was immediately ordered on the Recruiting Service, and finding other Officers & myself left the Army to recruit in Virginia, I again joined the Reg t at a Town called Woodbury in the State of New Jersey, they had been released but a few days from garrisoning Fort Mifflin, which was evacuated in a few days after. The Reg t was then commanded by Col. John Green, & I was then attached to the com- pany commanded by Capt. Claiborne Lawson, we marched then and joined the Army at White Marsh, here Genl. Howe, came to attack us but after

called Woodbury in the State of New Jersey, they had been released out from garrisoning Fort Mifflin, which was evacuated in a few days after. The Reg't was then commanded by Col. John Green, & I was then attached to the com- pany commanded by Capt. Clairborne Lawson, we marched then and joined the Army at White Marsh, here Genl. Howe, came to attack us but after manoeuvring & skirmishing for several days he withdrew to Philadelphia From thence we marched to Valley Ford, where we halted for the Winter I was in the action at Monmouth, thence we marched to the White Plains in the State of New York, thence to Robertson's Station on the North East Spots, West Point, thence to Middle Brook, where we halted for winter quarters; Here Genl. M'Laughlin gave out that the companies first halted, an officer of each should have permission to go to Virginia to recruit and bring out the soldiers that must be raised by Virginia, I was one that went, at this time; In the ensuing Spring. Genl. Scott issued orders, that those Men raised on the South side of Rappahannock River, should rendezvous at Fredericksburg and on the North of Alexandria, thence to march to the Northern Army, but from here we were ordered to join the Southern Army, we were organised at Petersburg Virg a , here we were detained for some time, owing to the want of Clothing for the Troops; to have them marched out of the State without a suit of Clothes (which were promised them by the State of Virg a ) Uniform) would have amounted to a discharge, anxious to go on Col. Richard Parker, Lieut. Col. Hopkins & Maj. Clough & Anderson proposed to Genl. Scott to let them try to get 400 Men who would volunteer their services (State Money in place of Clothing) they to officer them and take them on it was agreed to, and the Men were immediately raised & organised into four Companies 100 Men each, I was one chosen to march with this
