I am not aware of any atrocities committed by General Sir Tarleton here, which may explain why a prominent tree bearing his name thrived for so many years. He is not so kindly remembered in South Carolina, where the term “Tarleton’s Quarter” became famous, meaning no quarter at all, kill everyone. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Waxhaws #BattleOfWaxhaws #TarletonsQuarter #AmericanRevolution #RevolutionaryWar
