Just thought that it would be easier to start from the top down. Could use the name of your Corporal in the 1st VA Regt. He was probably in the Light Infantry Company of that Regiment. The 1st VA was in Brig. Gen. Mechlenburg's Brigade (1st VA Brigade) at the time of Stony Point. Best regards, Hugh <[email protected]>
