Please visit our Website: President s Message: Our chapter continues to grow in size. Judging by our Registrar s latest report, it looks like we will continue to have the most members of any chapter in the State of Florida throughout Being known as the Chapter with the most members is great, however size is only a number. The most important aspect of our large membership is the voting delegates we are allowed at the State Conference. We need to have members who step up and attend the State conference as delegates. Our Chapter deserves to have a full complement of voting delegates. If we don t have enough attendees we lose some of our power as the largest chapter. I would like to encourage our members, especially our newest members to get involved and attend the BOM and Annual Meetings. The next Board of Management and Annual Meeting is going to in Orlando on Friday, May 1 st and Saturday, May 2 nd. These meetings are held at the Florida Mall Hotel and Conference Center. Go to and click on the tab BOM to get more information and consider attending and representing our chapter at the State level. With the proximity to most of us in South Florida, you could go up and return on the same day if you would like. In May there will be another type of participation that our members can be involved in. This will be the 10 th Annual A Day to Remember Forgotten Soldiers Outreach Memorial Day Service. This will be held on Monday, May 25 th from 11:50 am to 2:00 pm at Palm Beach Memorial Park, 3691 Seacrest Blvd. in Lantana. Finally, I have something else I would like us all to participate in. It happens on the 3 rd Tuesday of the month from October to May and it is at the Embassy Suites West Palm Beach. That is right. It is our monthly meeting/luncheon. Every month we are having a variety of people join us who are not members yet. They may have been recently approved and are waiting their membership info from Louisville. They may have just submitted their application. No matter what stage they are in or if they are a guest of another member, let us make them and everyone else feel welcome. Since we now all have name badges, it is very simple to greet someone, shake their hand and call them by name. Gary T.

When the American War of Independence began residents of the new British colonies of Northern Florida did not seek separation from England as did the 13 colonies. As a result Florida remained comparatively free of serious fighting throughout the Revolutionary War. However, on May 17 th, 1777, Americans initiated a land and sea invasion of East Florida in retaliation for loyalists incursions into Georgia and with a goal of capturing St. Augustine its port and supplies.
3 The American expedition was composed of 300 Continental Army regulars from the 1 st and 2 nd Georgia Regiments commanded by Lt. Colonel Samuel Elbert and supported by 100 Georgia militia cavalry led by Colonel James Baker. Known as the "Battle of Thomas Creek", or the "Thomas Creek Massacre", the battle took place at Thomas Creek near the Nassau River. The successful British ambush surprised and routed the Continentals who were outnumbered due to the flotilla failing to reach its rendezvous point. After suffering heavy casualties, the American forces, discouraged by the ambush and failure of the flotilla to provide needed troops and supplies, retreated from Florida. In 1778 another Colonial expedition against the East Florida garrison also failed to capture St. Augustine at the "Battle of Alligator Bridge". Lt. Colonel Samuel Elbert The British East Florida St. Augustine garrison under the command Brigadier General Augustine Prevost included battle hardened British Regulars, loyalist rangers, militia cavalry, and local "Creek" Indian allies. The British received advance knowledge of the pending invasion and on May 17th, the land element of the Colonial army was attached by British Regulars commanded by Major J.M. Prevost supported by loyalist rangers and Indians commanded by Colonel Thomas Brown. While the battle itself was a minor engagement in the scope of the Revolutionary War, the failed attempts to capture St. Augustine prompted the British to send forces from New York, supported by the St. Augustine garrison, in December of 1778 to capture Savannah and reestablish royal authority in Georgia. Note: The Thomas Creek Battle site is located on the Seaton Creek Historic Preserve Park near Jacksonville, FL. Traveling south on I-95 at Exit 366 head west 2.5 miles on Pecan Park Road to 2145 Arnold Road, Jacksonville, FL (3 miles north of the Jacksonville airport). GPS N ; W Don Lanman Vice President, Palm Beach Chapter SAR PAUL REVERE "Listen my children and you shall hear Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere, On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-five; Hardly a man is now alive Who remembers that famous day and year." Ambush at Thomas Creek Almost everybody recognizes the opening line to Paul Revere s Ride, the stirring poem written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow in The poem was so popular that generations of school children were required to memorize the lines. But during Revere s life his role in the events of that evening were not looked upon by him or his contemporaries as being particular noteworthy. It would take 3.
4 Longfellow s poem written more than 40 years after Revere s death to bring him such fame and glory. Writers and poets frequently use what is commonly known as literary license when creating their written works. Longfellow was no exception, taking many liberties with the events of the evening in penning Paul Revere s Ride. His greatest shortcoming was giving sole credit to Paul Revere for the achievement of alerting the countryside of the British plans to march to Lexington and Concord. In reality there were at least three riders and unquestionably many others who alerted colonist throughout the countryside after the initial warning. Paul Revere was born in late December, 1734 in Boston, the son of a French Huguenot father who had entered Massachusetts Bay around His father, Apollos Rivoire, came to Boston from Germany at the age of thirteen and there was apprenticed to a silversmith. Securing his own shop he was able to marry Deborah Hichborn, a member of a long standing merchant family. About this time he anglicized his name to Paul Revere. Young Paul, one of twelve children, worked in his father s trade and when his father died in 1754 he continued the silver trade while his mother managed the business. He served briefly as a second lieutenant in an artillery regiment during the French and Indian War. Upon leaving the army, Revere returned to Boston and assumed control of the silver shop in his name. One of the skills that distinguished him from other silversmiths was that he was not only an expert smith but also a skilled engraver and one of the few craftsmen who could complete a piece of silver, even to the engraved decoration The quality of his work made Revere s services much in demand. In August, 1757, Paul married Sarah Orne who bore him eight children, six of which survived. He became involved with a number of Bostonians who were agitating over British policies in Massachusetts and ultimately joined the Sons of Liberty, a secret citizens group organized in the various colonies to protect against British policies, especially taxation. Revere began to fashion engravings that were anti-british, the most famous of which portrayed the Boston Massacre. The engraving, a masterpiece of propaganda, had the desired effect on those who saw its reprint in newspapers throughout the colonies. The engraving heightened the growing fear of increased numbers of British soldiers in the colonies and therefore increased fear of British government s meddling in colonial affairs. Revere s wife Sarah died in 1773 and in October of that year he married Rachel Walker with whom he would have five more surviving children. After the Boston Tea Party in December 1773, Revere began work as a messenger for the Boston Committee of Public Safety, often delivering messages to New York and Philadelphia about the political unrest in the city. His messages also took him into the Massachusetts countryside and northward to New Hampshire. By April, 1775, Revere was one of the most experienced riders for the Committee. On the night of April 18, 1775, Boston was rife with rumors concerning the motives of the British redcoats, marshalling throughout the city. Informants warned of an impending march on Lexington to arrest John Hancock and Samuel Adams, two of the most outspoken members of the Sons of Liberty. From there the redcoats would march to Concord where the colonist had a large store of ammunition. The British banked on cover of darkness and the element of surprise to accomplish this task, one it was believed that would lessen the colonist s chances for rebellion. Revere and William Dawes, a leather worker who was also a member of the Sons of Liberty, were instructed to ride first to Lexington, warn Adams and Hancock and then to Concord so that the military supplies might be removed. Revere was to cross the Charles River, then take a horse from Charles Town and ride to Lexington. Dawes was sent on the longer route via the Boston Neck and then on to Lexington. The signal from the steeple of the Old North Church, one if by land, two if by sea, was not really to inform Revere of the British movement. He was already aware of their plans. The purpose was to get the message through to Charles Town in case both Revere and Dawes were captured. 4.
5 Revere arrived in Lexington around midnight. Dawes arrived about a half hour later. After discussing the events with Hancock and Adams the two riders set out for Concord, a distance of about eight miles. They were joined by Samuel Prescott, a doctor from Concord who was returning there after a visit to a lady friend in Lexington. Halfway to Concord the three riders were detained by British troops. In a deposition given by Revere to the Provincial Congress after the Battle of Lexington he had this to say of their capture. In an instant I saw four of them, who rode up to me with their pistols in their hands, said G-d d-n you stop. If you go an inch further you are a dead man. Immediately Mr. Prescot came up. We attempted to get through them, but they kept before us, and swore if we did not turn into that pasture, they would blow our brains out. They forced us in. When we had got in, Mr. Prescot said Put on! He took to the left, I to the right towards a woods at the bottom of the pasture intending, when I gained that, to jump my Horse and run off afoot. Just as I reached it, out started six officers, seized my bridle, put their pistols to my breast, ordered me to dismount, which I did. Revere was caught. Somehow in the confusion both Dawes and Prescott managed to escape. Soon after he broke away, Dawes fell off his horse and was unable to continue. Dr. Prescott broke free in the pasture, jumped a fence and escaped into the woods. He aroused minutemen along the way and arrived in Concord bringing the first news of the British approach. After questioning Revere the British led him back to Lexington, refusing to allow him to hold the reins of his horse. In Lexington the horse left for Revere had the bridle and saddle cut before the British freed him. In the end it wasn t important who succeeded in warning the countryside of the British intentions, only that someone did. general hardware business. In 1792 he opened a bell and cannon foundry, in the North of Boston. He was one of the earliest bell casters in America, producing over 900, many which are still being used in churches and courthouses throughout New England. In 1801 Revere became a pioneer in the production of copper plating opening North America s first copper mill. Copper from his company was used to cover the original wooden dome of the Massachusetts State House in His company re-coppered the bottom of the frigate Constitution in 1803 just before it went into battle against pirates in Tripoli. His copper and brass works eventually grew, through sales and corporate merger into a large national corporation, Revere Copper and Brass, Inc. After a life of accomplishments Paul Revere died on May 10, 1818 at the age of 83. He is buried along with other Bostonian patriots in the Old Granary Burying Ground. Longfellow s poem surely made Paul Revere one of the best known and admired patriots even if he didn t quite accomplish all for which the poet gave him credit. Nevertheless, Revere was a true patriot as dedicated to the cause of freedom as any of his compatriots. Samuel A. (Buddy) Miller Historian, Palm Beach Chapter SAR Revere served for several years as an officer in the Massachusetts militia. His military career was somewhat undistinguished and it ended with unsuccessful campaigns against the British in Newport, Rhode Island and the Penobscot Indians. At the close of the war, Revere resumed his trade of silversmith, which he carried on in connection with a 5.
