Rebecca Brewton Motte was a true Patriot sorely put upon by the British during the Revolution. However, much of the coverage you’ll find of her on the internet is just a quiant telling of her willingness to burn her house down in furtherance of the cause. I look forward to seeing how Alexia Jones Helsley covers this facinating woman.

Hope to see you there!
