“My Dear Girl”

September 20, 2025 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
a painting of Paul Revere looking out over Boston Harbor with text from his letter overlaid over it

Stop by our Visitor Center to view an extremely rare Revere family document from our collection with our curator, David Gain. Paul Revere wrote this letter to his wife, Rachel, during the Siege of Boston in the Spring of 1775 while he was stuck outside of Boston and she and the children were stuck inside. View the original and read the (typed!) transcription of Paul’s letter to Rachel and the transcription of her response back to him.
