American History

The idea of including American History as part of ElectoralCollege.Org came a few days after the founder took his daughter and grandson from Sweden to Boston on July 6, 2023 to help them better understand their American roots and heritage.

We first visited the King's Chapel Burial Ground to see the historical marker that contained information on our distant great-grandAunt, Mary Chilton.1607-1679 (ggA). On the way to lunch at the Union Oyster House, we stopped to see the meeting room at Fanueil Hall. There on a historical panel we read the names of two political leaders, James Otis and Sam Adams. We are related to Sam Adams.1722-1803 (5c), but who is James Otis?
