Boston Family History
WikiTree is a new collaborative history site that starts with individuals and families — your own or a significant figure from history — and grows with the help of family and friends. Participants have started pages for a number of significant figures from early New England history, including Plymouth colonists Thomas Rogers and Stephen Hopkins and president John Adams. WikiTree also has a page of printable family tree diagrams with one that overlays an old map of Boston.
This chapter tells the tale of Bunker Hill -- one of the most dramatic engagements of the American Revolution. It was a military victory for the British, but a moral victory for the patriot cause.
Browse Boston posters, prints, and clip art.
