“The Wartime Experiences of Rev. William Martin”
Robert Ryals, Public Historian and Reenactor

The American Revolution includes anecdotal accounts of civilians persecuted for voicing criticism of British military actions. Rev. William Martin was one voice of dissent who suffered the consequences and paid the price for his convictions. This informative and engaging program brings Martin’s experiences to life, demonstrating the value of anecdotal history, and how anecdotal accounts can be applied for understanding the war’s effect on civilians. This program was made possible through a grant awarded by the South Carolina Sestercentennial Commission (SC250) to the Lancaster County 250 Committee.
