BRIEF HISTORY:
Andrew Jackson's official report of the Battle of Horseshoe Bend (27
March 1814) mentions that "a few companies" of Colonel Bunch were part
of the right line of the American forces at this engagement. More than
likely, some of those companies included Captains Francis Berry,
Nicholas Gibbs (who was killed at the battle), Jones Griffin, and John
McNair. In addition, muster rolls show some casualties from this battle
in the companies led by Captains Moses Davis, Joseph Duncan, and John
Houk. Other men from this regiment remained at Fort Williams prior to
Horseshoe Bend to guard the post -- provision returns indicate that
there were 283 men from Bunch's regiment at the fort at the time of the
battle. This regiment was in General George Doherty's Brigade and many
of the
men stayed after the enlistment expiration of May 1814 to guard the
posts at Fort Strother and Fort Williams until June/July. The line of
march went through Camp Ross (near present-day Chattanooga), Fort
Armstrong, and Fort Jackson.
