The navy for the Commonwealth of Virginia during the war with England took many forms and many different sailors in the process. There were ocean going vessels as well as the lowly row boat. Each size boat played their role in bringing the war to an end. Some of these vessels were used to move troops around on the rivers primarily as well as supplies, relaying messages and conveying messenger. Then a secondary role for almost all of the vessels was a a spy ship to keep track of the enemies and they directions of movement. The role of each sailor from the Captain down to the carpenters had a part to play in the success of the mission. There were few rewards other than a job well done at the end of the day. Only a few of the top “brass” received an recognition and even fewer rewards of land and money. The future of the United States and each of us depended on each sailor doing his job to the best of his ability. In this volume, we explore the biographies of each of the Captains and Lieutenants with all other ranks being listed under that rank. This includes the Marines that were assigned each vessel for the purpose of being gunners and fighting men in close combat.
CHAMBERLAYNE, GEORGE – Was the Captain of the vessel Jefferson 1779-1780. This vessel was one built in Chickahominy shipyard as both a commissioned state vessel and a privateer. The Jefferson was in service only a short time as it was sunk near Jamestown in January 1780.
