Brigadier General Joseph Graham's Brigade of troops…

July 1814 CE

Brigadier General Joseph Graham's Brigade of troops from North Carolina and South Carolina (including Colonel Nash's South Carolina militia) have deployed along the Georgia frontier to deal with the Red Sticks.

Colonel Reuben Nash's South Carolina volunteer militia regiment had traveled from South Carolina at the end of January 1814.

The militia had marched to the start of the Federal Road in Augusta, Georgia, walking to Fort Benjamin Hawkins (in modern Macon, Georgia) en route to reinforce the various forts including Fort Mitchell, Alabama (in modern Phenix City, Alabama).

Company muster rolls of Captain John Wallace (one of Nash's companies) list the company near Fort Hawkins on Februrary  9, near Fort Jackson (Alabama) on May 13, and near Fort Hawkins on July 13.

Other companies in the Nash's regiment are at Fort Mitchell in July 1814.

Graham's brigade participates in only a few skirmishes before returning home.
