Harper's Encyclopedia of United States History (ed. Benson Lossing), Life-guard, Washington's (search)

Life-guard, Washington's A corps, varying at different times from sixty to 250 men, was formed in the spring of 1776. The men, not less than 5 feet 9 inches nor more than 5 feet 10 inches in height, were selected from the Continental army for moral and personal perfections, to protect the person, baggage, and papers of the commander-in-chief. The last survivor, Uzal Knapp, of Orange county, N. Y., died in January, 1856, and was buried at the foot of the flag-staff in front of Washington's headquarters at Newburg, on the Hudson. See fac-simile signatures on pages 392 and 393.
