new vicarage
Whitstable Times and Herne Bay Herald - Saturday 17 August 1878
STALISFIELD. New Vicarage House.—ln this remote hill ' village on Friday evening last the first stone or new vicarage house was laid by the Eight Rev. Bishop Tufnell. who used the service provided by the Bishop of over.- year ago the Vicar, the Rev. S. found this parish in deplorable condition ; no resident gentry; few attending public worship; the church in a hopeless state of decay and on a very hilly road, a mile and a half from the nearest part of ; the village the vicarage house inconveniently situ| ated, badly built, out of repair, and charged with j £300 dilapidations, of which but a smaU sum has been recovered from an insolvent estate; and the use the Board School for parochial purposes was also ' refused. Now, however, improvement has begun : j the former house has been sold, the debt reduced by subscription, a building grant obtained from the Ecclesiastical Coramis>ioners, an exceUent site in the village purchased, a place for religious instruction provided by large parish room the new house, I which also, folding doors into the study, will afford room for church services until new church can be built on site offered by Lord Sondes close by, for which £530 already subscribed. The present high price of buildings, together with the great expense of bringing all mate:i;ds up hill from long distances, adds greatly to the cost that loan has ' had to be obtained from Queen Anne's bounty to complete the house. The archice. t Joseph Clarke, Esq, and the contractors are Messrs. Law son and Cornelius, of Whitstable. The Vicar has still to pro-1 vide for the new church and £190 balance i dilapidations, which will otherwise be a charge on this poor benefice.

Lieut C.H.Vlieland
On the internet we found yet another Vlieland in the U.S.A. in 1779.
Cornelius van Hempstead Vlieland.
The Hempstead may have been standing for either Hemel Hempstead, England or the Dutch city of Heemstede

It was perhaps because of the Siege's reputation as a famous British victory that Charles Dickens chose the Siege of Savannah as the place for Joe Willet to be wounded (losing his arm) in the novel Barnaby Rudge.

Door Patrick O'Kelley
from general Pulaski
By the afternoon of October 15, 1779, Captain
Bulfinch had no room to take any more passengers.
When another wounded officer, Lt.
Cornelius Van Vlieland, who had lost an arm
in the siege of Savannah, asked him for passage
to Charleston, Bulfinch arranged to send
him on another ship. In the sequence of events,
it looked as if the visit of Lt. Van Vlieland came
before the death of Pulaski, as Pulaski's death
certainly created a vacancy aboard. Had the
young lieutenant waited, Bulfinch would have
had space for him.
The day I found Bulfinch's letter to him
from Thunderbolt, or "Tunder Bolt" as he
spelled it, was especially important. On
October 15, 1779, Bulfinch wrote:
Sir,
I beg leave to acquaint you
that agreeable to your
orders I took on board nine
pieces of the artillery which
was the most I possibly
could take on. Mo'over, I even
was obliged to put some of
the carriages on board the
Schooner that carry the
French wounded. I likewise
took on board the
Americans that was sent
down one of which died this
day and I have brought him
ashore and buried him. They
have put only one lad on
board to attend the sick. I
should be glad your
Excellency would order some
others on Board to attend
them. Capt. Vlyland (sic)
came down this afternoon.
There was no place to put
him. The Eagle whom he was to have gone on
board, went away this morning and left him. I
made interest with the French Gentleman who
has the directions of putting the wounded on
board the other schooners for Charleston and
got him on board one of them. I am with the
highest esteem,
Sir, your most Re Obdt Sevt

Immediately after the Wasp left Thunderbolt
Bluff at high tide the following morning, quite
possibly the only remaining people who knew
where Pulaski's body was buried were the
denizens of Greenwich plantation, across the
road from Bonaventure, home to Mrs. Jane
Bowen, her four children, her brother, and their
servants. At the time Bonaventure was not
occupied by the plantation owners. During the
British occupation of Savannah, the Tattnalls
and the Mulrynes, who owned the plantation,
fled to Savannah or one of the British islands
in the Atlantic for safety

The foregoing were all of the Continental or Regular regiments which served
during the struggle for independence.
But there were other organizations of Militia which did much good service and aided our cause very considerably. The most celebrated of these was Marion's corps from South Carolina.
When this body was first formed, Francis Marion received from the State of South Carolina the commission of
Lieutenant-Colonel
and subsequently became a Brigadier-General.
The other field officer was Major Horry,
and both of them have been rendered celebrated by the pen of Weems.
This organization would in these days be considered as "mounted infantry," and in the unsuccessful attempt
to storm Savannah, Ga., in the Autumn of 1779, it suffered very much.
Captain Charles Motte, Lieutenants Alexander Hume, James Grey and Cornelius Van Vlieland were
killed, as was the brave Sergeant William Jasper who fell while attempting to plant the
American colors on the parapet of Spring Hill redoubt.
Many of the men were killed and wounded in this sanguinary affair. Here too fell Count Casimir Pulaski,
of Poland Brigadier-General of cavalry in the American service.
After this action Marion retreated to the interior, whence he was able to harass the British for a long time.
The movements and actions of these troops were of a most romantic character, and the
name of their leader is one of the most highly honored in our Nation.
