About this Plog!

My Passion for History and Living History Reenactment has been to learn and educate others on how people lived and survived in the past. I am committed to help preserve history for our children and their children to come. To tell stories of our ancestors that is not known nor told in the history books. I am not a expert on history, so the post here are just what I found on the internet and found to be interesting. You still need to look for more research on your passionate historic topic.

Rev War Exhibit at Hearthside and Battle at Chase Farm


In October, The American Revolutionary War came to Lincoln, Rhode Island. The Hearthside House, which I am a docent for 10 years, set up a Rev. War exhibit and invited reenactors to come and camp out on the local Farm near the house.
 Well, what a grand event it turned out to be. Reenactors from all over New England can in full gear, cannons and guns, tents and supplies for a two day battle.
Lieutenant Colonel Kenneth Gilbert, of the Pawtuxet Rangers, came to give a talk on the Gaspee affair.



The Revolutionary War encampment and battle on Chase Farm was very exciting and very well done. People came from all over New England to see this battle.
