Cincinnati SAR – Youth Education Program – Living History Presentation to West Chester Homeschoolers

The Cincinnati Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution has a wonderful Youth Education Program.

A key part of that effort is to go into area schools and share living history with the students and faculty.

These Compatriots dress in 1770’s era military uniforms which are consistent with the uniforms worn by their patriot ancestor in the American Revolution.

Each of these representatives has a different story to share with these students.

Compatriot Jack Bredenfoerder tells the story of Joseph Plumb Martin, a 15 year old who signed up to fight in the revolutionary war. 

On Thursday December 18th, Compatriots Stephen McClanahan, Jack Bredenfoerder, George Stewart, and Mike Gunn made presentations to these inquiring students.
