The name NATHANAEL GREENE is from the famous American who was born 27 July 1742 at Warwick, RI. An iron founder by trade, he served in the Rhode Island Assembly and in the Kentish Guards. Appointed Brigadier General by the Rhode Island Assembly, and Major General in the Continental Army, he was given command of a detachment of militia at the siege of Boston and was charged with protecting that city after the British withdrawal. He helped to plan the defenses of New York and served with General Washington at Trenton, Brandywine, Germantown, and Valley Forge. Quartermaster General in 1778, he reorganized the Army’s logistics. He also fought at Monmouth and in the Rhode Island campaign, and presided over the trial of British Major John Andre. In 1780, he was appointed command of the southern forces, winning the battles of Cowpens and Eutaw Springs and compelling the British forces under Lord Cornwallis to fall back on Charleston. He died in June 1786, near Savannah, Georgia. |
