This virtual program is part of our Winter Speaker Series, and will be presented on Zoom. A Zoom link will be emailed to all current SCHS members before the program.
Tyler Putman of the Museum of the American Revolution will present “Following the Army: Soldiers and Civilians in the Revolutionary War.” Join us for an exploration of life on the home front and on campaign with the armies of the Revolutionary War. In the eighteenth century, military families sent soldiers to fight, raised children, made military supplies, and even traveled with the armies in the field. Explore the stories of the civilians who supported the military on and off the battlefield and what their work tells us about the American Revolution. Tyler’s talk will of course include the legacy and significance of SCHS’ very own Liberty Flag!
