SUMMARY:Third Thursday Program: Tories\, Spies\, and Traitors\, Divided Loyalty in Revolutionary Connecticut
DESCRIPTION:Which side are you on? That’s the question that every single person in Connecticut had to answer in 1775\, as the thirteen colonies began a rebellion against British rule. Loyalty was not only a matter of words or opinion. For soldiers and civilians alike\, loyalty could mean loss of fortune\, of friends\, and even of life. This presentation reveals stories— some well known\, some obscure— of Nutmeggers who risked and sacrificed to support their chosen side. \nJoin us for this program about Revolutionary-era Connecticut presented by Rachel Beauchemin of the Connecticut Museum of Culture and History (formerly the CT Historical Society) and discover more about this divisive time in the state and the Bristol area. \nPLEASE NOTE the earlier date! \nDoors will open at 6:30. Additional parking is in the rear of the building and refreshments will be served. This program is free to members of BHS or the MMM or a suggested donation of $5 for nonmembers. \nRachel Beauchemin is a Museum Educator at the Connecticut Museum of\nCulture and History. She develops and teaches educational programs for\nschool and adult audiences. Rachel has had experience in both education and\nmuseums in CT and holds a B.A. in Political Science and Women’s Studies\nfrom Gettysburg College.
