Query Text: |
My ancestor, Captain Peter Summers of Guilford County, was reportedly in the First North Carolina Battalion. I assume this was a local militia, and not Continental First Line. I am interested in locating for research and verification, this fact, and review rosters of the militia, if they exist. Another fact I have about Captain Peter Summers is that he accompanied President George Washington to Guilford Courthouse Battleground when he was in the area on his Southern Tour. Can you advise if: - militia rosters exist for this frame; - comtemporary accounts of the time of President Washington's visit to the battleground. I have reviewed President Washington's diary of his Southern Tour where he visited Salem and onto Guilford County Battleground, as editted by Joseph Hoskins. I also would like to review militia rosters, for other allied families who may have served in the First NC Battalion: SMITH; WYRICK; GERRINGER. Your help much appreciated. rwp website: www.rwphillipsweb.com | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
