Subject: Patriot Minorities at the Battle of Cowpens From: Morrowroberson Date: February 18, 2000 Hello, Last month marked the 219th anniversary of the Battle of Cowpens. While visiting, I picked up a brochure that gave a brief history of patriot minorities that fought in the battle. The ones that can be documented are the following: James Anderson or Asher Crockett, a runaway slave from Virginia Edward Harris was living in Richland District, SC in 1852, son of free Blacks Dick Pickens, Andrew Pickens' servant Primes Record or Record Primus, a free man of color. Living in Roane County, Tennessee in 1846 Others that have documented are: Julius Cesar Lemerick Farr Andrew Ferguson Fortune Freeman Gideon Griffen Morgan Griffen Drury Harris Allen Jeffers Berry Jeffers Osborne Jeffers Andrew Peeleg I also picked up the book "The Patriots at the Cowpens" that I will be glad to look up names for anyone interested.
