Thanks for another interesting video, Ms. Katie.

What was the horses name? There's several names attributed to the horse, and I don't think any one has been definitely placed. You would know much more about this than I. It could make for good content.

Brown Betty was Reveres rented horse? The British took her. Wonder if she was returned to her owner?

Hi Katie. You have brought back memories. In the early nineties, we had dropped my daughter of to college and made a side trip to Boston. We walked the Freedom Trail, ending up at the Navy Yard. We just walked right in. At the time, the Constitution was in dry dock, undergoing a required procedure to cure its "hogging" of the keel. Additionally it was getting a complete restoration of other parts of the ship. It had been de-masted, as expected. In the parking lot, the superstructure from the mizzen mast had just received a fresh coat of paint. But the highlight of our visit was sitting on a pair horses - something I will never forget. On the horses, just sitting there was the rudder of the Constitution, with new copper plating. This was a work yard. No fences. I stood there with my hands on the rudder of the Constitution! No one around to admonish us. There we were. Cannon balls were stacked next to us. Absolutely amazing and memorably profound. I will never forget it. Thank you for bringing back that memory.

I’m sure there are MANY of us followers that feel Katie brings it ALL to life! I also anticipate her posts with huge excitement and glee!! I live in NH not so far from Boston but I have never had the chance to see the places Katie highlights until I discovered her online. Originally a Midwesterner, I came to New England decades ago through marriage. It is the HISTORY, the historic buildings (and the proximity of the ocean of course) that drew me here since a child. I must also mention old Betty Davis movies that highlighted New England! Thank You Katie for all yourself work-I LOVE THIS CHANNEL!!

Hello Katie, new subscriber here. Your video came across my KZbin feed for the first time. I’m a lover of history so this was right up my alley so to speak. I’m a proud southern born and raised Mississippian. I have to say, listening to your accent is a delight😊. Isn’t it funny that we (as a collective whole) don’t think of ourselves as having an accent, but anyone that speaks differently than we do 😂. Anyway, just wanted to share that I throughly enjoyed your very informative history lesson. And thought it might be interesting to you, that some of your viewers enjoy hearing your accent relaying the story as well. Warm regards from Northeast Mississippi 💚

[@ernestpolk9555]

[@edwardmartens9092]

Revere owned the Canton copper foundry. After the Revolution he noticed ships from England coming into to Boston Harbor with copper plates on their hulls. He sent his son Paul Jr to England to do a little industrial espionage and find out how they did it. Paul Jr came back with the secret and Revere was the first guy in the colonies to do it. Many historians say that was his greatest contribution to this country.

[@LockerMart]

Another great episode.

[@FutureZek]

That copper mill in Canton was owned by Boston's own Paul Revere, who seems to have had a hand in *everything* in the Boston area of that time.

[@jwalsh7576]

Ha, nice to see my old stomping grounds. Thanks also for including The Constitution. I used to work at the old Restaurant that is now the Museum. The first floor of that building was the Commissioned Officers Mess (Open), a Restaurant where Commissioned Officers and Retired Officers could eat. The top (3rd) floor was the BOQ. I was a busboy there back in 1972, 1973 before the Navy Yard was closed. Curious if you have read either N. Philbrick's book "Bunker Hill", or Fischer's book on Paul Revere's Ride? Love still reading stuff about Boston and seeing videos on History about it. Good job.

[@david-yc7bc]

You make history interesting and fun. I am amazed as a Native Bostonian, just how much of the Revolution, and the famous people who played such a big part, I dont know. Thank you.

[@IamJunius]

Thank you. My family and I have been to the Navy Yard more time then I can count and never realized that Revere's landing was located there. I had just assumed it was closer to Charlestown .

[@shaunshields8051]

You do a great job. The joy of your area is the massive amounts of U.S. History. I am a U.S. History teacher in Page AZ. At the high school. I ha e taught the part you mention about the USS Constitution and who own the mill the made the covering for the Constitution. People fail to understand how involved Paul Revere was in the beginning of the revolution.

My wife's ancestor owned the livery stable where Paul's renral horse was kept. The woman whose ancestor boarded and owned the horse is now deceased, a former friend. Her husband was the director decendant of Capt. Parker, leader of the minutemen at Concord (a community of potters and china dish makers). My wife's and my family were at Concord and Lexington. Even Sons of Liberty, Boston Tea Party. Signers of the Suffolk Resolves. One side came over in 1607 in Virginia, 1620 in Plymouth Colony and signers of the Mayflower Compact. Even signers of the Magna Carta (only distant cousins of the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution). At least four of the Continentals were direct ancestors at the Battle(s) of Trenton. My wife's side, at the last battle, Yorktown. Some served under and alongside Paul, by the way. Had business with, probably friends with him. Oh, and that terrible poem and dreadful book by Longfellow about my direct ancestors, the Courtship of Miles Standish, Longfellow is a distant cousin. So, how did I end up in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia?

[@keithrayeski6417]

Okay…I should have watched until the end to avoid embarrassing myself with answering the copper sheathing question. 🤦🏻‍♂️😎👍🏻 Now I’ve got to go to Charleston because I never knew about the Revere landing site! Gotta stand there!! Very cool!👍🏻😊

Great video Katie. My father got to work on Old Ironsides back in the 90's when they replaced the masts.

[@waynehullihen3066]

In 2012 my wife and son and I had one of our most fun and educational vacations ever. We went to Boston and did the Freedom Walk. It was quite moving to visit our beginning history. We visited the Granary burying ground, The Old North Church, Paul Revere’s house and The USS Constitution among the other historical places. Oh and we also visited the Boston Brewing Company for some refreshments. Quite the trip. Since then our son became an engineer and is employed by Newport News Shipbuilding. He works on submarines and aircraft carriers. On his desk is a pen made of wood from the Constitution that was purchased on that trip.

I’ve always been somewhat ashamed of my ignorance of the founding of our country. Especially in the fact I had three 13th great grandparents that came here on the Mayflower (which makes me wonder what my OTHER 32, 765 13th great grandparents were doing. Just hanging around?) My family still inhabits the surrounding area and my immediate family has been in southern NH for 4 generations. In school we had the usual history but not in detail. It’s great having the details pointed out that made the ‘usual’ stuff happen. Love your channel!

[@robertlee3]

I love this. I love American history, revolutionary period especially. I have been to many of these places and some that you have not. There are historical sites all over New England, it is ancient ground. I have been on the USS Constitution, down in it's hold, and it's a stout and sturdy wooden ship thick with history. I once lived in Southern New Hampshire. When you drive the ancient back roads in New Hampshire you'll notice that the roads are lined with rock walls, not mortared, but just piles of rocks for miles and miles and miles. Everywhere you go. And if you look back through the trees you'll see walls that extend beyond eyesight, and if you're lucky you'll see a stone chimney and fireplace still extant. The land was settled many years ago and farmers picked up and moved on for whatever reason.
