A contemporary list of the members of Spotswood's expedition across the Blue Ridge has not been found. As I mentioned earlier, in his edition of John Fontaine's journal Ed Alexander identified the following of the 63 men who made the trip: Robert Beverley, the historian; Robert Brooke of Essex; Capt. Jeremiah Clowder of King and Queen; Col. George Mason of Stafford; Col. William Robertson of Williamsburg; possibly Christopher Robinson of Middlesex; Augustine Smith of Essex; Capt. Christopher Smith of New Kent; James Taylor, Jr. of King and Queen; and William Todd of King and Queen. These names appear on page 14 of Alexander's introduction of the Journal. Maybe this will help.
