Abstract:
Celebration of America’s two hundredth anniversary included reliving a special part of US history. To help celebrants virtually step back in time were re-enactments of Colonial lifeways. It ranged from domestic chores such as cooking to clothes-making, from meal staples such as apple cider and corn, from entertainment such as Cock Fight and marbles. The history lesson learned: there were more commonalities than differences between the distant past and the present.

Abstract:

Where Flora’s story becomes especially memorable is her influence felt before immigrating from Scotland to North Carolina. That venture commemorated in this edition involved her helping the pretender to the British throne, Bonnie Prince Charlie, escape to France in 1746.
