· One of my viewpoints could be that well one may be that they considered people should be grateful to Britain because they founded the colonies · Atnother may be that Briain "protected" the colonies and helped fight the 7 years war.
Francis Marion was a patriot soldier who fought against the British using surprise attacks, and was cunning in gaining necessary supplies for his men. As stated in the article attached - Mel Gibson's character in 'The Patriot' was loosely (VERY loosely) based upon this gentleman. His family had land in South Carolina and through his local connections he was able to gather men to continue the fight. He had such a way about him that he reportedly convinced a British soldier to change sides and fight with the patriots. Not through a face to face conversation, but through his actions was this done.
Peter Salem was not a loyalist. The loyalists were people who remained loyal to England during the Revolutionary War. Salem was a freed slave who fought in the Battle of Bunker Hill, and he fought against the British. Thus, he would undoubtedly have been considered a Patriot by the colonists who were rebelling against English rule.
