War of 1812 2nd Lt. Capt McCray's Company - Fought at Battle of Horshoe Bend
The Battle of Horseshoe Bend (also known as Tehopeka, Tohopeka, Cholocco Litabixbee, or The Horseshoe), was fought during the War of 1812 in the Mississippi Territory, now central Alabama. On March 27, 1814, United States forces and Indian allies under Major General Andrew Jackson[2] defeated the Red Sticks, a part of the Creek Indian tribe who opposed American expansion, effectively ending the Creek War.
1st Regiment of East Tennessee Militia
January 1814-May 1814. Commanded by Colonel Ewen Allison, reporting to General George Doherty. Doherty's entire brigade participated in the Battle of Horseshoe, where many casualties were suffered. The unit was mostly organized at Knoxville, from which it traveled to Ross's Landing (named after Chief of the Cherokee Indians, John Ross) in present downtown Chattanooga, Tennessee to Fort Amstrong, Fort Deposit, Fort Strother, Fort Williams, and finally to Horsehoe Bend, returning the by same route. Captain Hampton's company was at Fort Armstrong in March 1814. The men were mostly from Carter, Greene, Hawkins, Sullivan, and Washington Counties.
