Dan Cole brings his knowledge and expertise about the young veterans who came here and how they survived the war. The talk is paired with a showing of “”Revolutionary Youth”” reel from Ken Burns’s “”American Revolution”” series that describes how young people lived, contributed, and participated in the War for Independence.
Dan Cole is a well-know researcher in local history and a consultant at the Ethan Allen Homestead in Burlington, VT. His work includes numerous papers on Charlotte’s early history as well as the book, “”Upon Us Rests the Burden: The Civil War Experience of a Small Vermont Town.”” “
