The Battle of White Plains Project

A Partial List of Soldiers and Officers who were present at or near the Battle of White Plains, October 23 to November 1, 1776

This list* has been compiled from various primary and secondary sources in order to better identify those individuals (American, British and German) who participated in the Battle of White Plains, the regiments in which they served, and as many details as possible as to where they were positioned and what happened to them during those days. This is a partial list that will be updated on a regular basis. The public is welcome to make additions and corrections. All inquiries about this project can be sent to the White Plains Historical Society, 60 Park Avenue, White Plains, NY 10603, or electronically to info@whiteplainshistory.org
