One of my ancestors from New Kent enlisted in the 20th US Infantry in 1814. 
He was at Camp Defiance. No mention of where this camp was located. He was 
discharged in 1815 at Norfolk. I found several different Camp Defiance 
listings from Google. One Google book result mentions a Camp Defiance near 
Norfolk, Virginia. This sounds like the place I'm looking for. But I cannot 
find anything useful about this Camp. Does anyone know of this place and 
where I can find more  information on it, like it's location and other 
surrounding camps?

Thanks in  advance.
