True enough...and although Daniel Morgan was born in NJ, he left at the age of sixteen and adopted Virginia as his home. He’s buried in Winchester (and believe me, as a Garden Stater, I would love to claim him). Greene was a Rhode Islander...and a lapsed Quaker to boot!

"Rogues Island" was pretty much where "lapsed" anything gravitated to, a key reason why puritans in the bordering states ordered trespassers from said colony to be shot on sight, lest they disturb the "moral order."
