The monument to Benedict Arnold doesn't name him, but is commemorating his actions specifically and can be found at Saratoga National Park.
There are monuments to many British dead at battlefields and cemeteries.
In West Organge NJ there is a monument know as Tory Corner commemorating loyalist forces who supported the crown.
There are many more examples if you look.
