250th Talks - The Hart of the Struggle: Southern Women on the Revolution’s Frontier

Join the Orange County Historical Museum to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence with a year-long series of talks discussing the founding of our country. We continue our series of talks by taking a closer look at some of the people that shaped our early nation.

​

On March 21st, Susannah Haury, a doctoral candidate in History at the University of North Carolina, will present “The Hart of the Struggle: Southern Women on the Revolution’s Frontier”. This presentation delves into the legends of extraordinary Southern women during the American Revolution and explores what these larger-than-life figures can tell us about the real, lived experiences of everyday women in the fight for American independence.
