Virginia Continental Line Reorganization of 1778 and 1779
Question: I am confused by the numbering of Virginia Regiments after the 3 Virginia detachments were wiped out. (The third detachment met its fate at Waxhaws.) At Guilford Courthouse there were two Virginia Regiments. Some accounts of the battle call them the 4th and 5th VA Regiments and other sources call them the 1st and 2nd VA Regiments. Can you please help me with the numbering of the VA Regiments in March 1781? Thanks in advance for your kind assistance. Perplexed Dear P
