Are you sure it was the 17th? A Google search found mention of Saunder's
Company, militia, 7th Virginia Regiment. The page just mentioned a couple
of people who were in it, no history.
Here's the link to where I found mention of it. Go to the page and then do
a "Find on this page" search for Saunder

Not sure of this is what you are looking for, but it's a start.

Subject: Boulware/Bowler - Private in Saunders Company of the 17th Regiment
of Infantry
Can anyone tell me what state Saunders Company of the 17th Regiment of
Infantry originated from during the American Revolution? Can you direct me
to a website that might give me more information about the unit?
