It’s back to school season!
On August 28, 29 and 30, the Bergen County Historical Society and the recreated 4th Battalion, New Jersey Volunteers will host the School of the Loyalist in Hackensack, New Jersey. This will be a weekend of lectures, interpretation, workshops, and living history.
According to the historical society’s website, “Loyalist living history groups from across the United States and Canada will take part in bringing the life and times of the common soldier and refugee to life.”
Among the presentations being delivered are That Question of Loyalty; how and why some colonists decided to remain loyal to the King by David Moore, and A Loyalist in the Family by Kathryn Lake Hogan, UE.
