Since the United States was just forming some probably felt loyal to their town/state first and then to the 13 colonies. One of the weak points to the Articles of Confederation was that state and local loyalty was very strong and most people didn't have a national loyalty yet. So, if polls had been taken in 1780 I would guess they would state their state and local area.

Most citizens in the 1780's gave their loyalty to the town they lived in and their state. They also were loyal to the 13 colonies.
