But the identity of this fledgling parish wasn't solidified until 1781, during a skirmish with British loyalists, now known as the Battle of Elizabethtown.

When Wilmington was occupied by British forces in 1781, the surrounding rebel country was was raided by the British and their loyalists, Tories, for food and other provisions. The Tories had also wrested control of Elizabethtown, much to the dismay of the townspeople. With the help of a spy inside the town, the outnumbered rebels were able to mount a surprise attack and drive the Tories out of town.
