    The Colonials considered themselves British as well. I read some time ago that Paul Revere referred to the Red Coats as "The Regulars". Today the Militia is now called the Guard, and the Army is still called the Regular Army.

      Indeed. In fact _most_ Continental Army officers during the Revolution were former British officers in the British Army. And, as stated in the video, most of those were up out of the aristocratic class...including George Washington himself.

    Four men and one woman made late night rides, alerting the early Americans of what dangers lay ahead. They were Paul Revere, Samuel Prescott, Israel Bissell, William Dawes, and Sybil Ludington. Who if I am not mistaken rode much further than Revere but "Mans World" and all that...

    FYI The bayonets they were using was the "triangle bayonet". It was design three sided because the wound it made was harder to close up and heal. A "knife style" bayonet could easily be cleaned and stitched up but because of the three sided puncture made by their's it was much harder to keep it from getting infected. It was considered the second weapon outlawed for war. The first being the "wheel lock" because it could be carried ready to fire.

    You should look up the Battle of Kings Mountain. 900 Appalachia mountain men against 1,105 British Red Coats.
    Mountain men: 28 ki**ed 62 wounded.
    Red Coats: 290 ki**ed 163 wounded 668 captured.
    It's reported that the leader of the British forces Patrick Ferguson said that "God Almighty and all the rebels of hell could not drive him from the mountain."
    And well, I suppose he meant it since he's still up there.

    So I can't find enough of the family tree....But I would assume that Cotton Tufts (the doctor who bandaged Whittemore up) Was likely related to Charles Tufts who founded Tufts University which has a Medical Branch that's rated in the Top 100 in the world and # 56 in the US.
    So Whittemore likely was helped by a pretty important family down the road

    Life expectancy is not life span. The average life span hasn't changed since human records began. Life expectancy is an average when you take into account the insanely high infant mortality rate back then. If one made to adulthood and had a regular job like a farmer you lived about as long as people do today.

  • @bad-people6510
    @bad-people6510 9 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

    When people talk about short life expectancies back in the day you have to understand that's an average, mostly dragged down by a very high rate of infant mortality. If you survived to adulthood hitting your seventies was not unlikely. There were still plenty of people in their 70s and 80s, I'm aware of at least one recorded example of a medieval peasant living to be 108.

    Life expectancy numbers in the past are comparatively low by modern standards mainly due to infant mortality or death by accident/illness/misadventure before adulthood. As a general rule, though, if you survived into adulthood and didn't have bad luck with disease or violence, you could reasonably expect to live into your 60s or 70s.
