The swamp fox's actual name was Francis Marion. He made a small fighting force in South Carolina during the 1700's, harassing British troops. They would show up, attack the British, sabotage communication and supply lines, and rescue American prisoners. Marion was nicknamed "swamp fox" because after attacking the British, they would disappear into forests or swamps.
