  • Chapter 3—Section 5 Notes
    Causes leading up to the American Revolutionary War After the French & Indian War England issued the Proclamation of 1763 closing the land west of the Appalachian Mountains to the colonists supposedly to keep peace with the Indians. Also, to protect the colonists from any Indian uprisings and to enforce all English laws and acts, England left a standing army of 100,000 British troops in the colonies. George Grenville, Prime Minister of England, ask Parliament to tax the colonists to pay for the army and pay for England’s debt from the French and Indian War. Sugar Act of 1764—taxed sugar and molasses imported into the colonies. To prevent smuggling, traders/merchants were required to list all trade goods they carried on their ships—which had to be approved before they left port. British navy was also given permission to stop and search colonial ships for smuggled goods. Parliament also changed the legal system in the colonies to vice-admiralty courts which dealt with smugglers. (no longer innocent until proven guilty; but guilty until proven innocent) The colonists believed that England did not have the right to tax them without representation in Parliament. (“no taxation without representation”) Samuel Adams helped create the Committees of Correspondence—told what the British were doing throughout the colonies so that the colonists could always be informed as to what the British were up to—no surprises. The colonists protested the taxation by boycotting all British goods(1765), hoping to hurt the British economy and convince Parliament to repeal the taxes. Parliament passed the Stamp Act(1765) in the colonies requiring the colonists to pay for a stamp to be placed on all paper items: deeds, wills, playing cards, newspapers, etc.

  • Women's Involvement in the American
    Breaking Out of the Historical Private Sphere: Women’s Involvement in the American Revolution Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with research distinction in History in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Franchesica Kidd The Ohio State University April 2018 Project Advisor: Professor Lucy E. Murphy, Department of History Kidd 2 Introduction The beginning of the history of the thirteen original colonies transitioning into the United States of America has been greatly overshadowed by a masculine tone with the successes and influences of men, whether it is a hero of a battle or a Founding Father. Whenever history was taught and retold, it seems as if the presence of women during this time of revolt and rebellion in the colonies was lacking. Due to the patriarchal hold on women’s involvement with anything outside of the private sphere, women could not have been as openly involved as a man during times of war. However, where there is a will, there is a way, and in the case of the American Revolution, women would not let their gender be the variable to force them to remain in the shadow of men when it came to help in fighting for independence. Women during this time proved this thought by becoming more involved with the Revolutionary War by starting women’s groups to help with gathering supplies for troops, writing and publishing articles in local newspapers, to something as unconventional as serving in battle alongside men. Women such as a Massachusetts soldier Deborah Sampson, Esther de Berdt Reed, a writer and advocate for women’s involvement in helping the Continental Army, or even the female playwright and propagandist Mercy Otis Warren are only a few examples of the women that were involved in numerous ways to support the cause of gaining independence from England.

  • PHILADELPHIA WOMEN and the PUBLIC SPHERE, 1760S-1840S
    “THE YOUNG WOMEN HERE ENJOY A LIBERTY”: PHILADELPHIA WOMEN AND THE PUBLIC SPHERE, 1760s-1840s By KATHARINE DIANE LEE A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in History Written under the direction of Nancy Hewitt and Paul G. E. Clemens And approved by _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey May 2016 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION “The Young women here enjoy a liberty”: Philadelphia Women and the Public Sphere, 1760s-1840s by KATHARINE DIANE LEE Dissertation Director: Nancy Hewitt This dissertation examines women’s access to and participation in the community life of Philadelphia in the decades surrounding the American Revolution. It argues against the application of separate spheres to late-colonial and early national Philadelphia and proposes that women were heavily integrated into nearly all aspects of the city’s public life. Women from diverse backgrounds were actively involved in commerce, politics, protest, intellectual and legal debates, social institutions, wartime developments, educational advancements, and benevolent causes. They saw themselves and were viewed by their peers as valuable members of a vibrant and complex city life. If we put aside assumptions about women’s limited relationship to the public sphere, we find a society in which women took advantage of a multitude of opportunities for participation and self-expression. This project also examines the disparity between the image of the ideal housewife and the lived experience of the majority of female Philadelphians. Idealized descriptions of Revolutionary women present a far more sheltered range of options than those taken advantage of by most actual women.

  • Women and the American Revolution (2020)
    The Varieties of Political Experience: Women and the American Revolution Presented to the faculty of Lycoming College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a Joanne and Arthur Haberberger Fellowship By Erin Emerick Lycoming College May 3, 2020 Approved by: ____________________________________________Dr. Christopher Pearl ____________________________________________Dr. Laura Seddelmeyer ____________________________________________Dr. Ryan Adams ____________________________________________Dr. Jessica Munson Introduction Early in the spring of 1776, as tension between the American colonies and the British government was at its peak, there was a disturbance in the town of Stratford, Connecticut. One of the women had just given birth to a son and she had decided to name him Thomas Gage after the former commander of the British army. As news of the birth spread through the town, some of the patriotic townswomen became upset, and quickly decided to band together to punish the Loyalist mother.1 Nearly 200 women “formed themselves into a battalion, and with solemn ceremony appointed a general and other officers to lead them on.” After forming their ranks, the women “then marched in the greatest good order to pay their compliments to Thomas Gage, and present his mother with a suit of tar and feathers.”2 Only the pleas of the woman’s husband prevented this female militia from accomplishing their task.3 These New England women chose to take violent action, expressing their political identities in a public way. However, this overt political expression was not the only way that women expressed their political ideas during the American Revolution. During the war for independence, patriot women expressed themselves politically on the homefront, as well as on the battlefield, in a variety of ways.
