Today, July 03, 2026, for this American Revolution 250th Anniversary July 04 Weekend, I drove to the Maurice River Friends Quaker Burial Grounds in Maurice River Township, New Jersey. While there, I visited the grave of Henry Reeves. Henry Reeves was not a Soldier. He did sign an oath of faith and allegiance to his state in opposition to the King of Great Britain. Due to this, he is considered a Patriot of The American Revolution. In addition to the battlefield, the homefront was very important to the war effort. For this Revolutionary War Semiquincentennial weekend, I found it necessary to honor those who were committed to the cause of independence. I wore multiple layers of clothing in my 1700s style attire. What was the temperature and real feel today? 102 degrees? 105 degrees? 107 degrees?
