Upon the resignation from service of William Shepard as colonel-commandant of the 1st Massachusetts Brigade in late November 1782, BG Paterson was reassigned from command of the 2nd Brigade to that of the 1st Brigade, which continued to be composed of the 1st, 4th and 7th Regiments.

When the large majority of the army, i.e., the "during the war" enlistees, were furloughed in June 1783, the remaining men who had been enlisted for lesser terms were retained in service. As a result, the Massachusetts Line was reduced from eight to four regiments, the new 1st and 3rd Regiments forming the 1st Brigade, under the command of BG Paterson. Known orderly books of the 1st Brigade for this period include:

1st Massachsuetts Brigade

Following an extended period of illness spent in Boston, BG John Glover submitted his resignation to the Congress in July 1782, his official departure from the army becoming effective in late August. For the remainder of the year, this brigade - consisting of the 1st, 4th and 7th Massachusetts Regiments - served under command of Col. William Shepard of the 4th Regiment. Known orderly books of the 1st Massachusetts Brigade for this period while under command of its senior colonel include:
