I have family listed with Cornwalliss [17th regiment of foot, a Leicestershire unit], Samuel, Joseph, John.
After being taken prisoner at Yorktown Sam and Joseph were converted to American citizenship at the point of a musket.
any information about all of these would be appreciated, especially John.any one getting back to these 3 be warned the line goes back to 940 yes! 940, all in central and north Leicestershire.
