Description: The Women of the American Revolution were a motley crew of various combinations of class, color, age, and education, and their experiences during the war were as diverse and varied as the women themselves. Without them, the new country may not have survived. Today let's get to know some of the women who were critical to our nation's birth. While you are watching and listening, try to decide which of these 13 women you might have been had you lived during the American Revolution or who you would have wanted to be your spouse, which one would have been your best friend, and which one would you have admired the most of all of these brave Daughters! Mark Y or W for #1, BF for #2, and MA for #3: Who would you have wanted to be: 1. Y/W – You or your wife; 2. BF – Your best friend; and 3. MA – Who would you have most admired. After we'll do a group tally and see who wins in each of these categories!
