From the Archives of the Maryland Historical Society, Vol 12 page 277, we get a reference to Capt. John Fauntleroy. On complaint of Col. Benson Stainton that Capt. John Fauntleroy refused to obey his command to draw up his company "on the usual field of parade" in Caroline County, Md., he was tried by court martial. Major Matthew Driver, president of. the court, states that John Fauntleroy "behaved in a very rude and insolent manner to the said Court, declaring that he did not feel himself bound even to attend the said Court, and looking upon it as a mock trial and offered in the presence of the Court to give Col. Stainton £ 50 to exchange a Ball with him". It was the judgement of the court that Capt. John Fauntleroy pay £ 5 current money for his offense and breach of duty. Dec. 4, 1776."
