In commemoration of Women's History Month, North Country Lady and I will make the presentation "Women of 1775" again this year. It will be before the end of February. We don't have a date from the library, but they want to do it. I do the first two Strikes and NCL does Strike 3 and the Women of 1775.

Her family came over on the Mayflower. That would be the Thurber family. The other side of her family owned the ship!
Our history is not a list of dates and places. It is a dynamic adventure of freedom and individual courage.

That sounds great! (I tried to set up something similar for President's Day but couldn't pull it all together in time.)
Would you please post a synopsis (or a link if it has already been done) of NCL's "Women of 1775" presentation?

I'll have North Country Lady do it. She's the expert on that.

Captain Noah Cook a Revolutionary War Veteran was my great, great, great,...great grandfather. Noah Cook enlisted in the militia on April 21, 1775 at age 18 upon learning of the Battles of Lexington and Concord that morning. His company left on that day for Concord arriving April 24, 1775.*
