For the third presentation in our summer history talk series, Timothy Abbott, from Spencer’s Additional Continental Regiment, will share the stories of soldiers from Berkshire County who enlisted in the Continental Army and State Levies. Their involvement in the American Revolutionary era and their experiences in the military will shine a light on life during this fraught time in American history.
