Headquarters of Lord Cornwallis, near Valley Forge.
The British armies were at Valley Forge and vicinity in
September, 1777, having advanced through this region
after the battle of Brandywine. They ransacked the
houses and barns of a great quantity of military stores and
provisions. Lords Howe and Cornwallis occupied old farm
houses near Valley Forge. The Thirty-third Regiment
infantry came to America in February, 1776, commanded
by Cornwallis, was in nearly all the important engagements
and surrendered with Cornwallis at Yorktown on October
19th, 1781.
