Thank you for posting this.
I didn’t know much about the Battles of Cowpens and King’s Mountain, other than I had kinfolk who fought at these two Battles.

Outstanding, Buff!
I have one ancestor I know of who fought in the Revolution - Samuel Brison, born in Scotland - settled in Stephens City, VA after the War. I believe, but cannot yet substantiate, that he left Scotland as a child during the Highland Clearances. Still digging for information on him and many other of my people.

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
