Our Patriots
Molly Pitcher at the Battle of Monmouth in June 1778 by E. Percy Moran, Library of Congress, public domain
These are the names of our chapter member's Patriot Ancestors, and are just a few of the Patriot names recorded in the nation's history of the American Revolution. They are men and women from all backgrounds with the courage and commitment to found a new republic.  As the United States prepares to commemorate its 250th anniversary, the Mary Ball Chapter welcomes you to explore and celebrate the stories of our citizen-soldiers who made America. We continue to confirm new patriots, reaching all walks of our early American colonial life.  
​We are also striving to uncover and honor more of our Forgotten Patriots.
