Patriot civilian and military refugees from New York and Long
Island
Large numbers of Patriot refugees,
including most of the Long Island militia, crossed over to
Connecticut in 129 ships, 48 of which were commanded by Long
Lsland refugees. Many of the Long Island refugees enlisted in the
3rd and 4th N.Y. Continental Regiments.

William Floyd, Col. David Mulford, Col. Josiah Smith, Col. John
