Capt. Ephraim Jackson’s Minute Company
October 5, 2024 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Costumed members of this Revolutionary War reenactment group take on the roles of farmers, carpenters, tailors, and millers who volunteered to turn out “at a moment’s notice” as Minute Men as tensions between occupied Boston and the countryside increased following the closure of the Port of Boston, and seizures of gunpowder and cannon by the King’s troops in Charlestown and Cambridge in September of 1774.
