Photographs of Revolutionary War soldiers.

I found this mind blowing article from of all things a British newspaper! It got me wondering whether there are more out there somewhere? Also I’ve failed to find any of British soldiers, I wonder if there are any?

WOW! Superb. Thanks for sharing I was so excited to read through. I had seen the Samuel Downing image before though have not seen the others, and even more amazing is get to read their stories.

Joe Bauman has certainly done a great service to Rev War history. The hat George Fishley wears is so cool to see in a picture. And to see Simeon Hicks, a minuteman! This really, really brings history to life.
