I represent James Frisby. I was a captain in the Maryland Loyalists Regiment. I was commissioned when regiment was raised in 1777. We saw action at the Battle of Monmouth in 1778 before being sent later that year to West Florida to defend Pensacola and Mobile against the Spanish. We arrived in late December 1778 exhausted and sick. Those of us who survived until the surrender of Pensacola in May 1781 were sent to New York with the rest of the prisoners of war. I resigned my commission in spring 1783, before most of the regiment went to Canada.
