Cornwallis reports his casualties two days after…
March 1781 CE
Lieutenant Colonel James Webster of the 33rd Regiment of Foot had been wounded during the battle and will die two weeks later.
Lieutenant-Colonel Tarleton, commander of the loyalist provincial British Legion, is another notable wounded officer, having lost two fingers after taking a bullet in his right hand.
Greene reported his casualties as fifty-seven killed, one hundred and eleven wounded and one hundred and sixty-one missing for the Continental troops and twenty-two killed, seventy-four wounded and eight hundred and eighty-five missing for the militia, a total of seventy-nine killed, one hundred and eighty-five wounded and one thousand and forty-six missing.
Of those reported missing, seventy-five are wounded men who had been captured by the British.
When Cornwallis resumes his march, these seventy-five wounded prisoners are left behind at Cross Creek, Cornwallis having earlier left seventy of his own most severely wounded men at the Quaker settlement of New Garden near Snow Camp.
