3 companies of North Carolina riflemen. Some sources say it may have been 3 companies of Georgia militia. Not all sources are in agreement

The cavalry of Tarleton's Legion

MAJ McDowell (if Georgians then MAJ Cunningham)

That is what my copy of the CGSC Staff Ride Book and A Devil of a Whipping
say.
