Colonel Tye
}} Colonel Tye, also known as Titus Cornelius (17531780), was a slave of African descent in New Jersey who achieved notability fighting as a Loyalist during the American Revolutionary War; he was known for his leadership and fighting skills. He was one of the most effective guerrilla leaders opposing the American rebel forces in central New Jersey.〔("Colonel Tye" ), ''Africans in America'', PBS〕〔(Jonathan D. Sutherland, ''African Americans at War'' ), ABC-CLIO, 2003, pp. 420-421, accessed 4 May 2010〕 ==Early life and education== Titus was born into slavery in New Jersey and originally owned by John Corlies, a Quaker in Monmouth County. Corlies held slaves despite his denomination's increasing opposition to slavery. By the 1760s, it was Quaker practice to teach slaves how to read and write, and to free them at age 21. Corlies kept his slaves past that date, and he was one of the last slaveholders in the region.〔 He was known to be hard on his slaves, severely whipping them for minor causes.〔("Colonel Tye" ), ''Africans in America'', PBS〕
