After dinner we will have a presentation by Mr. Jim Morgan – “Touring the American Revolution in North Carolina”
The “American Revolution Tour of North Carolina™” is an online guide exploring more than 90 sites related to the Revolution and Regulators. AmRevNC.com covers not only battles, but stories of protests, personal heroism, women, minorities, and more. Background pages summarize the history of the war, biographies, and military life. Research for the website turned up events and details either forgotten, even by historical organizations, or not widely known. For this event, the AmRevNC™ founder and author will point out how to get the most value from the website, and share personal stories about the project and lesser-known locations in our area, like Beattie’s Bridge, Raft Swamp, and the Flora MacDonald Homesite. Audience questions will guide the rest of the conversation.
