There were a lot of loyalists living in the backcountry of Georgia and South Carolina
In the south, especially Georgia and the carolinas.
Her mission was to rid the Georgia territory of the british loyalists
Well remember, Georgia was base mostly on agriculture back then, and all of the taxes put on the colonists mainly harmed the industrial north (Ex: Stamp Act). Therefore Georgia wasn't as effected as much as the northern colonies, so many Georgians remained Loyalists.
If they invaded Georgia and South Carolina,they could end the war with help of the Loyalists.
Many Loyalists left the 13 colonies because they where loyal to the British Crown and were not safe staying in the U.S during the Revolution.
The king was for it and the Loyalists was for the king so that's why..
King George III, king of England during the colonies. a bunch of loyalists moved to Georgia and named it Georgia in honor of king george.
Many Loyalists wanted to remain 'loyal' to King George. Many were harassed by neighboring patriots after the war because they knew the loyalists' preference for the King. The loyalists were bullied and so, they decided to leave by ship for Canada. Though many stayed in Canada, eventually some did return to the US soil.
