Betsy Ross is well known, or so we thought. my friend Frederick R. Smith is a historic storyteller. I hope you will find this chapter on the Women of the Revolutionary War fascinating and moving, and learn things we were not taught. There is much, much more to Betsy Ross than a simple seamstress who was chosen to make our New Nation's first Flag. But Fredrick brings it up today with his story. Be sure to watch the Videos. His first three chapters started on the 4th of July, Independence Day. I asks what role did women play, as they were varied and often dangerous. He chose Betsy Ross as his first Woman of the Revolutionary War. ENJOY!
Betsy Ross and the women who supported the revolution are heroines. There are tales in our family history of women who cleared out traitors and tories from local areas single-handedly. These were no shrinking violets.

The next essay about the Founding Mothers will be Marta Washington. Stary tuned as a couple posts about other topics might come out first.
I need to get in the ball for this!
