Learn about “Jane McCrea: A Revolutionary Martyr and an Early American Family Story” with Blake Grindon, Ph.D. candidate at Princeton University.  She will explore and examine the life and legacy of Jean McCrea.  Best remembered as the focus of anti-Indian and anti-British Patriot propaganda that followed her death during the Saratoga Campaign in 1777, further investigation reveals her role in an interconnected world of colonial wars and Native politics stretching back long before the American Revolution.  This will be a virtual event as part of the Expert Next Door series via Zoom.
