Join BCHS on June 27th as we welcome reenactor Stacy Roth for her program, "Over Here, Molly Pitcher"!

“Over Here, Molly Pitcher: Stories of a Woman of the Army in the American Revolution” is an interpretive storytelling presentation about Mary Hays McCauley, the plucky woman who assisted her husband and his artillery crew during the Battle of Monmouth, June 28, 1778. Her tales are related from the perspective of 1822, the year she receives a pension for her service from the State of Pennsylvania. Molly, dressed in her Revolutionary War attire and armed with the material remnants of her service, touches upon topics that include the aftermath of the war for the veterans of the Revolution, as well as Molly's adventures from the time of her husband’s enlistment to the Battle of Monmouth, what life was like as a “woman of the army,” and her exciting day of battle.

Tickets for this event are $10 per person. All ages are welcome to this program. To guarantee a spot, email us at [email protected] to RSVP

Program is to be held in the Corson Poley Center at the Burlington County Historical Society.

The Mother of Normandy: https://youtu.be/CRTxqZAckcM

The woman who never let America’s heroes be forgotten.
After D-Day, a French woman named Simone Renaud vowed that the American paratroopers buried in Normandy would never be forgotten. She became known as the “Mother of Normandy,” comforting grieving families, honoring the fallen, and welcoming veterans back for decades.

Our friends at Classic Movie Central are playing this moving documentary telling her incredible story. If you love WWII history and honoring the Greatest Generation, please take a few minutes to watch.
Help support independent WWII storytelling—watch the film, subscribe to their channel, and share this tribute.
