The Loyal American Regiment: Links

Places where the Loyal American Regiment fought or camped, or where the recreated regiment visits:

• Stony Point Battlefield State Historic Site
  Here also is a virtual Walking Tour of the site.
• Fort Montgomery State Historic Site
  Be sure to watch their movie; some of us are in it.
• Hewick Plantation
  Beverley Robinson's birthplace in Urbanna, Virginia, remained in the extended family until just a few years ago.
• Philipse Manor Hall State Historic Site
  Built by the great-grandfather of Susannah Philipse Robinson; confiscated during the Revolution and later sold at public auction.
• Kings Mountain National Military Park
  October 7, 1780 was not a good day for Loyalists in the South.
• Battle of Iron Works Hill
  The recreated regiment hosts this event in Mount Holly, NJ, each year on the second Saturday in December.
• The Hancock House
  Another event we host, in late March. We also appeared in a couple of promotional videos for Salem County, NJ: Discover the Possibilities and Explore Salem County’s Rich History.
