Audrey Source: "The Old Free State"(Lunenburg County, VA) Rev War Soldiers who served under… "The movements of the Lunenburg companies which served with the Northern army prior to the campaign in New Jersey and Pennsylvania are not known. But the companies of Captain James JOHNSON, Captain Edward GARLAND, Captain Nicholas HOBSON, Captain Peter GARLAND and Captain John STOKES participated in the military operations in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and at least the compainies of Captain HOBSON, Captain James JOHNSON and Captain peter GARLAND spent the terrible winter of 1777-78 at Valley Forge. It is highly probable that Captain Edward GARLAND’S company also was at Valley Forge, but the company’s records for that period have not been found. John STOKES, until February 1778, a lieutenant, was also at Valley Forge. " Captain Edward GARLAND, Colonel Charles LEWIS and Colonel William DAVIES. The muster roll of July 3, 1777 affords some information as to the movement of this body. It shows that from May 7th to 10th, 1777, the company was at Alexandria, Virginia, and between that time and July 3, 1777, it left certain of the company’s sick at Baltimore and at Philadelphia. One of the corporals of this company, John DAWS, had the signal honor of being selected as a member of the General’s Life Guard. "The roll of this company as returned July 3, 1777, was as follows: Edward GARLAND, Captain William WINN, 1st Lt.
