Rochester's Revolutionary Roots In-Person
Monroe County was not a site for any of the battles of the Revolutionary War, but the conflict and the ideas (and ideals) that inspired it were nonetheless highly influential in the area's development. Join Rochester & Monroe County Historian Christine L. Ridarsky to learn about the many ways in which the American Revolution has shaped the lives of local residents. From the Seneca people who lived on these lands long before Europeans arrived, to the veterans who settled here with their families, to the reformers who cited the nation's founding documents to argue for the abolition of slavery and women's rights, Rochester's revolutionary roots run deep. Registration recommended.
