I am interested in any Virginia military presence in South Carolina in the Revolutionary War.  I am aware of:

Revolutionary War:
- Gen Danl Morgan coming out of retirement to lead continental troops at Cowpens.
- Some Va regiments surrendering at Charleston in 1780 when Cornwallis took the place.  Does anybody know the designation of the regiments and how many troops surrendered?

Civil War:  
- No knowledge of any Virginia troops there.  
- But a general question.  Did Sherman take the city the same way Cornwallis did by cutting it off from the rest of the mainland.  i.e NOT by sea.
