- Battles of the Revolution
Let's take a moment and recognize how fortunate we are to be anticipating America's 250th (Semiquincentennial) in 2026. The celebrations have already begun! Check america250.org for a full list of events scheduled. The Smithsonian is also hosting events to commemorate the anniversary. A must see online exhibition can also be found on their website here . It's a good time to brush up on your knowledge of the American Revolution! Here's what you need to know: The American Revolution (1775–1783) was a series of military and political struggles through which thirteen British colonies in North America won independence and became the United States. It began as a colonial protest against taxation and imperial control but evolved into a global conflict involving Britain, France, Spain, and the Netherlands. The war unfolded in several phases—New England, the Middle Colonies, and the Southern campaigns—each marked by dramatic reversals of fortune. The opening clashes at Lexington and Concord in April 1775 ignited the war, as colonial militias confronted British troops near Boston. The bloody Battle of Bunker Hill soon followed, proving that the inexperienced colonists could stand against the world’s most powerful army. In 1776, George Washington’s daring victories at Trenton and Princeton revived American morale after the loss of New York. The turning point came in 1777 at Saratoga, where an entire British army surrendered, persuading France to ally with the Americans. The war shifted south in its final years. Despite early British successes in Georgia and the Carolinas, guerrilla warfare led by partisans like Francis Marion wore down royal forces. Washington’s and Rochambeau’s combined armies trapped General Cornwallis at Yorktown in 1781, forcing his surrender and effectively ending the conflict. Sporadic fighting and negotiation continued until the Treaty of Paris was signed, on September 3, 1783, officially ending the war. Below is a list of all the major (and some minor) battles of the American Revolution. These are just a fraction of the hundreds of skirmishes and engagements that were part of America's fight for independence. Choose a link to watch a short video about any battle.

- A note from my great-grandmother
This weekend I was going through a box of old papers and photos that belonged to my mother, going down memory lane with the family. I always say it's important to take a lot of pictures, so we don't forget, but now in my fifties, I believe it's equally as important to label the pictures with dates, places, and people because even though we have photos, there are so many pictures of people and places I don't recognize and with all our pictures being digital now, I wonder how many people are labeling their galleries. I know I'm not! Well, there were many treasures in that old box - old postcards, letters, autographs, and lots of pictures, but one stood out and touched my heart. It was an envelope addressed to my parents, postmarked May 1979, from Santa Ana, California. It was from my mother's maternal grandmother, Delaphine "Mary" (Decker) Dickinson. Her husband, Rev. William Henry Dickinson, had died the year prior and she was visiting with her son, my mom's Uncle Bob Dickinson, in California. Enclosed was a two page hand-written letter filling my mother in on her recent travels, and with the letter was a small card on transparent vellum paper with flowers painted on one flap and a message written on the other. Since it is becoming faded, I scanned it for preservation. "Keep on learning Bible verses. Grandma" Delaphina Decker, changed her name to Mary D. Dickinson when she married Rev. William H. Dickinson, in 1925. Together they raised eight children, most of whom lived to old age. You can see a short video about her, complete with photos on YouTube here .
