I hope you enjoy reading about these men, they served their State and country with honor, Many of these men were wounded while in service. I had no reason on why I picked these names only in that I liked the sound of them and I thought there service record was interesting reading. All these men were officers, some however first held the rank of private then moved up the ranks. Look for my other list ( Names of the Continental Army ) there are many more men to read about.
