Pvt. John Anderson

I represent John Anderson. I was a private in the Provincial Corps of Pennsylvania Loyalists. Raised in Philadelphia in 1777, the corps arrived in Pensacola at the very end of 1778 and remained until the surrender of Pensacola to the Spanish on May 10, 1781. The Pennsylvania Loyalists were sent with the rest of the prisoners of war to New York. My name is found on the manifest of a transport to Nova Scotia, where many loyalists took refuge.
