Notes for THOMAS LINDLEY:
They are buried in the Lebanon Methodist Church cemetery near Rabun's Creek in Laurens county, SC. The
cemetery has a memorial list of soldiers who fought in the Revolutionary War that contains the name of Thomas
Lindley. It is not known if his wife Elizabeth is buried there. Beginning with this generation this line of the family
had changed over to the American side in the Revolutionary War.
This marker represents the battle of September, 1781, which took place at Quaker Thomas Lindley's mill, where
over 250 soldiers on both sides were killed or wounded.
At this site patriot militia commanded by Brigadier General John Butler ambushed loyalist militia commanded by
Col. David Fanning in an effort to free Gov. Thomas Burke and other patriot prisoners whom the loyalist had
captured at Hillsborough the previous day. Although losses were heavy on both sides, the loyalist kept their
prisoners and continued their march to join the British forces at Wilmington. After the four hour battle, local
residents cared for the wounded on both sides and buried the dead."
