Thus began what is generally known as the Battle of Long Island, arguably the largest battle of an extended and sanguinary conflict that was to last six more years. Retreating precipitously, the terrified pickets sent word of the attack to George Washington's main army encamped behind fortified positions about three miles to the north. From there, American General William Alexander (Lord Stirling) was immediately dispatched with the regiments available to him south along the Gowanus Road to meet the British threat. One of those American regiments was Colonel Jedediah Huntington's 17th Continental Regiment, made up of men primarily from eastern Connecticut. Arriving at the scene of action, Lord Stirling sent Colonel Huntington's Regiment, with parts of two other regiments, into the wooded hills inland from the Bay to protect his exposed left flank. In doing so, the general unwittingly sent Huntington's Regiment into oblivion. What happened to the Connecticut men of Huntington's 17th Continental Regiment after they marched off into what was the most isolated and remote part of the battlefield would remain a mystery for the next two and a half centuries. For the first time, herein, the author has been able to piece together the fate of Huntington's Regiment from diaries, Revolutionary War pension records, Connecticut State records, family histories, and town records and histories.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhile this book tells the story of the regiment as a whole, genealogists will find it of value as it also provides brief biographies of many of the individual soldiers who served in the regiment during 1776.

In addition, it sometimes provides the age of the pensioner (or his widow) and a brief description of his military service. Occasionally there is a reference to his date and place of death or a notation indicating that he was pensioned from another state. In all cases the source of the pension record is identified: survivor’s file, widow’s file, rejected file, or bounty land warrant.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eConnecticut Society Daughters of the American Revolution\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e(1919), 2000, paper, 169 pp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eISBN: 9780806309866 \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e102-1145\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GPC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42413375357046,"sku":"102-1145","price":28.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1654\/3033\/files\/gpc-logo-102-1145-1500px.png?v=1777329955"},{"product_id":"102-9342","title":"\"Fire Cake and Water\": The Connecticut Infantry at the Valley Forge Encampment","description":"\u003cp\u003e“While the six-month encampment of the Continental Army at Valley Forge in 1777-1778 has been part of America’s folklore for generations,” author Joseph Boyle writes in his Introduction, “most of the men who served there have remained anonymous. The names of over 30,000 men of all ranks appear on the surviving monthly muster and payroll records. This compilation is the initial effort to recognize some of these heroes of the Revolutionary War.”\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe are pleased to report that Mr. Boyle has been more than up to the task he has set for himself, for, in a carefully constructed Introduction, he strips away legend from fact in recounting the dreadful encampment of Washington’s army at Valley Forge that began in December 1777 and ended in June of the following year. It is here that we learn how fate conspired to move a number of Connecticut regiments from the Hudson Highlands of New York to the environs of Philadelphia, as well as what would become of them after Valley Forge. The heart of the volume, of course, consists of an alphabetical list of some 4,000 Connecticut soldiers abstracted from Revolutionary War muster and pay rolls at the National Archives. Each patriot is identified by name, rank, date and term of enlistment or commission, name of regiment and company, and a variety of supporting details, such as date of furlough or discharge, when wounded, when and where promoted, etc. In support of the abstracts the author has prepared a detailed glossary of terms found in the rosters, an explanatory list of locations referred to in the entries, and a lengthy, up-to-date bibliography on the topic.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFire Cake and Water\u003c\/i\u003e promises to add immeasurably to our understanding of one of the most fateful moments in U.S. history.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJoseph Lee Boyle\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e(1999), 2004, paper, 232 pp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eISBN: 9780806349138\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e102-9342\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GPC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43240637562998,"sku":"102-9342","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1654\/3033\/files\/102-9342-1500px.png?v=1776196767"}],"url":"https:\/\/heritagebooks.com\/collections\/military-connecticut\/connecticut+military.oembed","provider":"Heritage Books, Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
