SUMMARY:Lunch and Learn - 'One Tory and One Scalp': Violence on the American Revolution's Northern Front
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Presentation!\nIn 1777\, during the American Revolutionary War\, Jane McCrea was killed by Native allies of the British. She was quickly elevated by the Patriot press as an American martyr\, making her the most famous civilian casualty of the war. Yet examining the surrounding events in primary sources\, including those in the collection of Connecticut Museum of Culture and History\, reveals a complex history that stretched back long before\, to warfare among the Haudenosaunee\, Wabanaki\, British\, and French. \nJoin us for a virtual presentation in which Dr. Blake Grindon\, New England Regional Fellowship Consortium grantee\, will discuss her recent research findings. \nThis virtual event is free and open to the public. Click ‘Get Tickets’ below to receive the Zoom link. Questions? Contact Jen Busa\, Public Programs Coordinator at jbusa@connecticutmuseum.org. \nAbout the speaker: Dr. Blake Grindon is at work on a book about the death of Jane McCrea. She received her PhD from Princeton University and is currently the Patrick Henry Postdoctoral Fellow in the History Department at Johns Hopkins University and NERFC fellow for 2024-25. Her work has appeared in the William and Mary Quarterly and has received support from the Clements Library\, the David Center for the American Revolution at the American Philosophical Society\, the Winterthur Museum\, the John Carter Brown Library\, and the Omohundro Institute. \nImage: Dr. Blake Grindon \nTICKETS\nThis virtual event is free!
