Paul Revere House
After his midnight ride, Paul Revere couldn’t return to Boston. What became of his family as patriot forces besieged the city, trying to expel the British troops? In this program, you’ll look at the experiences of Revere’s daughter Sarah, helping her mother pack to flee the city, and his son Paul Jr., who was left behind to guard the house against marauding soldiers. The event is partly an after-hours tour with a look at historic documents, partly a field trip for adults, and partly an opportunity for discussion about how the American Revolution resonates through time.
