Episode 23 - South Mountain Pass and Trouble in the Ranks
October 1, 1780, a Sunday, the combined army of Patriot militia broke camp at Quaker Meadows. We have followed and discussed the militias of McDowell, Shelby, Sevier and Campbell extensively as they made their way across the Blue Ridge Mountains to this rendezvous at modern-day Morganton. Now we will meet troops from Northwestern North Carolina and begin moving out toward Gilbert Town, North Carolina, the last-known location of Patrick Ferguson's forces.
