General Notes: Husband - Archibald McAllister

---

The supposition is that he enlisted during the Revolution in a Maryland Regiment and was commissioned an "Ensign in the First Maryland, Dec. 10, 1776, and Second Lieutenant, April 17, 1777; First Lieutenant, May 27, 1778. By act of Sept. 24, 1779, it was "Resolved that Congress justly esteems the military caution so happily combined with daring activity by Lieutenants McCallister and Rudolph in leading on the forlorn hope in the attack on the enemy's works at Paulus Hook, and that the Brevet of Captain be given them." Retired April 1, 1781. (Heitman's Register.) In his certificate of membership in the Society of the Cincinnati, he is given the rank of Captain. After the war he bought a large rice plantation near Charleston, North Carolina, and was in partnership with Roger Moore, whose widow he afterwards married. He died at Charleston in the hospital, from wounds received during the war.
