    1. [VAAUGUST-L] Rev.War

    3. Here is a list of Loyalist, German and English officers from the Rev. War. This URL was posted to the Rev. War list and I went through it and pulled out some of the names that have appeared on queries on this list, and some that I was looking for. This is from the index of a book which is available which is explained at this site. I only chose a few that sounded like VA names. These officers escaped after the war to Canada, England and back to Germany, the German names represent a few of the Hessian soldiers, many of whom stayed in the US, or went to Canada and came back when the coast cleared. For those of you who complain of treatment of the South after the Civil War, you should be aware that the English were not allowed to stay in America after the Rev. War. If they did stay they were subject to long years in prison. Tories and Loyalists who lived in this country before the war spent long years in exile in Canada before they dared to come back. Such is the fate of losers. Many Americans died in British prison ships which were worse hell holes than any Civil War Prison, and when these prisoners died they were dumped in the bay, no gravesite to find for them. The British couldn't show their faces in this country for many years. I'm not saying any of these names appeared later in VA or anywhere else, only that there is a possibility if you are stuck, don't connect to families with these names, you might connect to one of these Rev. War families. Note: The name of their Regiment indicates where they were from or who their sponsors were in England and Germany.
