Letter from George Weedon to Nathanael Greene. Fredericksburg - Acknowledging letter of 14th ult., and congratulating him on the birth of a daughter. Would have given his only hat if it had been a son! Has leased a farm not to far from town, where his friends will always receive a hearty welcome, and if Mrs. Greene will come, promises her a ball every week. Great hopes at the beginning of the Rhode Island expedition, disappointed. Desires his opinion on the state of the arm, on the results of the Court-martial and the Eastern pole tax. Thinks the British are pretty tired and would gladly quit. Assembly still sitting; will communicate the heads of their deliberations in his next.; American Philosophical Society
The Valley Forge Orderly Book contains records of General, Divisional, and Brigade orders received under the command of George Weedon between August 25, 1777 and May 7, 1778. Evocative of the hardships faced by the Continental Army during the bitter winter of 1777-1778, the orderly book records orders relating to duties, disciplinary matters, promotions, and desertions. The orderly book also includes a plan of battle for the Battle of Germantown, 1777, and plans for the troops at Mount Holly (November 1777) and what appears to be Whitemarsh (November 1777). It also includes several illustrations of troop formations and an insert of an 1897 Valley Forge map.; American Philosophical Society
