Revolutionary War

My ancestor, George Woodley, served as a private in the New Jersey Volunteers from 1776 to 1783 when he was evacuated to New Brunswick. In his petition for a land grant he stated that he served in the Battle of Eutaw Springs, South Carolina, September 1781. I have several copies of original muster rolls for the period September 1781 obtained from the New Jersey Archives in Trenton and in the Ontario Achives in Toronto. None of these muster rolls indicates the location of service which I assume to be Charleston, South Carolina but would like confiration.
I would appreciate help in locating archives where such information might be found.
