What a wonderful story! A giant of a man enduring the War, protecting our nation and giving birth to the same through his bravery and action. Thanks again, Tara!
Thanks for a great story! Peter sounds like a true example of American exceptionalism going from nothing to someone special. I agree there are many brave unknown heroes of our war for independence. Thanks Tara I enjoy these stories!
Another interesting character from our history. Little, if anything, is known about this man except what you have shared today, Tara. Whatever exaggerations about his life it’s good to have what is true disclosed. Men like Peter Francisco definitely made a huge difference in the outcome of this nation.
Thank you Tara. I don't believe that I have heard of Peter Francisco before. A man of that stature would surely have been a marked man. The fact that he served throughout the Revolutionary War is proof of his determination and loyalty to the American cause.
Stunning are the ones who are called in the need to win change offering mankind advancement as a species. And yet with whom do we battle? Our own species for the change in ideas and policies built on tyranny.
Freedom fighters come in all shapes and sizes! 🇺🇸 Found a few monuments saluting Peter Francisco & posted at my FB Page & Substack. I shared your post too 🤓
Our United States owe so much to so many for their contributions to our freedom, and Peter Francisco is one of those relatively unknowns who made a huge contribution in his faithfulness to duty to his country! Thank you for sharing this awesome Patriot’s legend with us, Tara Ross!
HI Tara- Perhaps you meant Stony Point, rather than Sandy Point? The battle on the Hudson River, right? It's a big one in the history of the Army engineers...
When the legend becomes fact, print the legend! 😉

Yes, another patriot who helped to make us a free nation. As Benjamin Franklin said "a republic, if you can keep it."

Thank you for another interesting post!
What a story from my home state. Totally new and quite the man and patriot. Surely a force that help us succeed to win our independence.
Thanks Tara.
Thank you, Tara.
