Remember, Paul is our apostle (Romans 11:13) ❤

Have you filmed a segment on Colonial America’s Religions?

Thank you Tom Hand and Americana Corner for everything you continue to do to promote and preserve our nation's rich history. It is greatly appreciated.

Looking sharp sir. 🇺🇸

No comment? Still a good video Tom

I'm surprised at not mentioning Lee's Mexican war campaigns.

They were basically American aristocrats! It's interesting how so many fortunes were lost in our countries history. These were huge farms & plantations compared to today. But not many survived.

I watch this video on Martha Washington's birthday. It is a great capsule biography of Martha Washington, who rose to the roles presented to her in life and fulfilled them with a sense of honor indeed. Huzzah!

The village map pictured is of Fort Plain, not Cherry Valley. It is also a map depicting the village around 1891.

Not most they perform all the work

Some of my ancestors were Loyalists. They regarded the rebels as Traitors. Especialy when they made common cause with the French, Britain's traditional enemy. My ancestors went to Britain & eventually ended up in Australia.

It amazes me how our patriots were able to overcome so much adversity to make our Democracy and Freedoms a reality today! Outstanding video!

Very Interestig information that isn't even mentioned in Social Studies classed regarding The American Revolution!

Isn’t Donald Penobscot, Hot Lips HHouligan’s boyfriend?

I am grateful God has seen fit to insure our past is preserved with a respectful and thorough understanding of history.

Thank you Tom.

Extremely interesting as I just wrote a short FB article on how Franklin got help for the new nation from France. no mention in documents of Spain's help for our nation.

One correction , you fought the British, not the English .

A very biased portrayal. The presenter doesn't mention the casualties of the Loyalists and their Indian allies - which were ten times less, this is vital information for an understanding of the battle, but because it makes the rebel forces look inept and their foes somewhat heroic, he "forgot" to mention it. Also the main mission of the expedition was to relieve the siege and to give the British a bloody nose in the process - not only did they fail to reach the fort, or the British, but they were the ones that got roughed up. From the rebel perspective (I used the word "rebel" only because almost all the participants were American on both sides) the battle was a total disaster on all levels, their objective completely failed, their force obliterated with very modest damage against their enemies - yet the spin here is that because the Indians and Loyalists called it a day, after their job was very much done (i.e. stopping the column with significant enemy fatalities) the victory went to the USA, which is obviously ludicrous and smacks of propaganda rather than honest history.

Can't appreciate enough what Spain did for us in the American Revolution! Spain is often criticized for her help in that it was for self interests only. So what? Reasons matter little lol! Spain didn't need us! We needed Spain! Historian Larrie Ferreiro said that Spain and also France fought in the American Revolution for self interests only and that there's nothing negative about that! It's okay to do that! Sad that Spain is criticized while France gets a pass. People also forget the American Revolution was a world global war and not just within the 13 Colonies! Over 100,000 Spanish soldiers and sailors fought against the British helping the United States win it's independence! About 17,500 Spanish soldiers fought in the Southern theater in Florida and the Caribbean protecting French possessions allowing Degrasse to travel to both the Chesapeake and later Yorktown which Spain also had a huge role in the military planning! Spanish General Bernardo de Gálvez was kind and generous enough to release his own French troops under Spanish command and ALLOWED Degrasse to take them to go reinforce Rochambeau at Yorktown! Sadly, none of this is taught in American schools!

Extremely interesting into the "backstory" of how our young nation 's fate was impacted by international activities by Spain. Great vignette!

America had a list of undeclared allies, but Spain was the most effective. In 1779 the combined fleets of Spain and France attempted to land an army on England’s South Coast. Although the attempt failed this resulted in troops being held back for home defence. Spain then took the fight to the Mediterranean with an attempt to take back Gibraltar. Other Allies included Holland and the Mysore of India. Along with these fighting forces Britain had to contend with the ‘League of Armed Neutrality’. These nations included Russia, Turkey and the Scandinavian countries. This League used armed ships to protect its trade with America. But for me the most effective help came from Britain itself - Radical Patriot Whigs in Parliament. When news of the defeat at Yorktown reached London, this was the final straw against the Tory Government and the Whig Lord Rockingham became Prime Minister in 1782. Fighting against the colonies stopped the moment he came to power, but he continued the conflict against the other powers until the peace treaties of 1783. Men like Rockingham did not want to loose the colonies, but they believed that all Englishmen, even American ones, had the democratic right to chose their own governance.

LESGOOOO

Thank God for Spain! Spain did so much to help us win the American Revolution! I'm only now discovering all this! I can't help but question the exact extent of French aid that we've been taught over the years! There's no way France could have won by herself nor with the 13 Colonies without Spain!

As I understand Spain supplied weapons to Clarke but by whom exactly? Was it Fernando de Leyba? Bernardo de Gálvez? Just curious. Thanks folks.

Spain also sent muskets to Saratoga in coordination with the French in 1777! Sadly, none of this is taught in our American classrooms giving France more credibility and fame it doesn't deserve!

I find it comical that they portray Washington in a blue coat, when in reality he wore a red coat. In fact, his official position within the militia was "COLONEL of the BRITISH ARMY, 1ST LOYALIST DIVISION VIRGINIA REGIMENT UNIT in service to the BRITISH CROWN and "COMMANDER IN CHIEF of all FORCES in DEFENCE of HIS MAJESTY'S COLONY." A crown loyalist, just like his ancestors before him. In fact, Washington isn't even his real family name. It's DeHertburn. His ancestor William DeHertburn, a Norman Knight in service to the King, was gifted "Wessington Manor" for his faithful service. William then changed his last name from DeHertburn to Wessington, which is the Norman spelling of Washington. Something most historians either don't know or intentionally avoid.

It's bill cipher

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Interesting, thanks.

It was a marriage of convinence in Spain helping the Americans. I think the Spanish came to regret it or put off the danger until after the war. When the cold war developed betwen Spain and Ameirca in the Mississppi River Valley and the Cumberland River Valley With the filibustering by Americans salivating for Texas , Florida and and the mining provinces of Northern Mexico and then their was the intrigues of General James Wilkinson spying for Spain. And Aaron Burr conspiracy. Messy, messy stuff. How we ever became and remained a country is anybody's guess.

Without Spain the American Revolution would have been lost! Both France and the American Colonies could never have defeated Great Britain alone or together without Spain! Spain tipped the balance and guaranteed full American victory! 🇺🇲

Thanks Spain!

Very interesting, that's not something I learned about in school.

Great channel, Tom

This is a great page, the true genuis of the internet pages like this sharing Important/Useful information.

Thank you look forward to this 3min every week Read the text last night You should be required reading in schools

My research says that the militia that marched on Upper Sandusky, were Pennsylvania militia, not Kentucky. Col. Crawford led the group from Mingo Bottoms on the (West) Virginia border of Ohio, adjacent to Pennsylvania. Kentucky militia would have left from the crossings in Kentucky rather than march up and around the Ohio valley to cross several hundred miles from their settlements. Otherwise, the story line is accurate. Note: my 5th Gt Grdfather and his brother were in the Washington County militia, which made up more than 70% of the troopers.

I would like to see a video, showing how the Northern States, sold their numerous slaves to the Southern slave owners, and made laws in almost every Northern state stating that freed blacks could not work in the State. The North intensely disliked blacks and wanted to get rid of them and didn't want them returning. In fact A. Lincoln was the head of the group in ILL that worked to send blacks to Africa or South America. He continued that work until the day he died. The North disliked the South for several reasons, but one of the most important reasons was that the South imported blacks and had a huge black population, "polluting the USA with non-whites". I doubt if the true history of Lincolns war and the period leading to the war will ever be told in a big way, but it is available in books. Think about this the next time someone says the North made war on the South to free the slaves.

If only the" Military Man" had listened to thr Frontiersman and not depended upon bravado only to retreat ! great Story and leson!

Once again you have been able to highlight the achievements of a forgotten hero of the American Revolution. Your Revolutionary moments are so enlightening!

Mr. Hand, your videos are by far, the best history lessons on YT. Too bad they’re only minutes long. Especially love this tribute to GRC. The most important figure in our revolution not many know about! Thank you.

George Rogers Clark is America’s forgotten hero. Thank you for highlighting his amazing story. My 4th Great Grandfather Charles Duncan was granted land in Kentucky for his service to George Rogers Clark.

Another great video, Tom

Thank you for that wonderful tribute to Mr. Clark - I learn so much listening to your videos!
