I've read that Rev. Simpson supplied Rev. Martin's Catholic Presbyterian Church after Martin was arrested by Cornwallis after he preached a sermon encouraging his congregation to fight against the British. He was gone till war's end. The men from the church formed 2 companies and went off to fight. Wm Stormont's name was not on the monument, but the book Revolutionary Soldiers of Catholic Presbyterian Church by Mary Wylie Strange, 1946 & 1978 says: "This Wm. Storment who died Oct 10, 1794, aged 50 years, was a member of Catholic and sleeps in the churchyard there. His name should have been on the memorial stone. It is deeply regretted that his excellent service was not established in time to place it there." Billy Kennedy's book, Scots-Irish in the Carolinas lists William Starmount as being on the list of Revolutionary soldiers of the church.
