Traveling by water\, the Continentals encountered British troops at Amelia Island\, which delayed their rendezvous with the Georgia militia who traveled by land. On May 17\, a small force of 109 Georgia militia men was ambushed by a mixed force of British Army\, Loyalist militia\, and Native Americans near the mouth of Thomas Creek in Northeast Florida. Lieutenant Colonel John Baker of the Georgia forces and 41 of the Georgia militia men survived the battle. The encounter was the first major engagement and the second of three failed attempts by American forces to invade British East Florida. It is considered the southernmost battle of the American Revolutionary War. \nA FLORIDA HERITAGE SITE SPONSORED BY THE FLORIDA SOCIETY\, SONS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION\, THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE\, AND THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF STATE
