Very cool!

Love the RevWar.

Ahh, the famous Camden battle, where fat Brit Horacio Gates ran off on a son of the great Dreadnought.

Even a great blood horse would not be stupid enough to run for 60 miles. Bastard Gates lying about his running away and abandoning the field.

I told my wife to bury me in the woods with:

1. A Smurf doll.
2. A bottle opener
3. 3 right shoes.

See what those archeologists make of that in 200 years.

I’m surprised that area hasn’t been stripped bare by weekend searchers using metal detectors.

And, speaking of horses...

The The Carolina Cup Races in Camden is always fun...although a little pricey.

I’m not a scientist but it’s surprising that the bones are still there and it’s not in a dry climate.

The majority of continentals were from Maryland, Delaware and Virginia, with a couple of small attachments from South Carolina and North Carolina. However, many militia from North Carolina and Virginia were at Camden, including the counties where my North Carolina ancestors resided:
