SUMMARY:Rochester's Revolutionary Roots with Historian Christine Ridarsky
DESCRIPTION:This presentation will cover local connections to the war\,

 the Genesee River on their way to the Battle of Wyoming and to counter the 
 Clinton-Sullivan Campaign\; Rev War veterans who made their home and were 
 later buried in the county (including African American and Native American 
 soldiers)\; and the ways in which revolutionary ideas influenced the 
 development of the area in the 250 years since the revolution\, looking at
