We hope you enjoy. This is another in a series of postings on our RU-vid channel of a cool New series of Old videos -- featured only on here -- taken from a personal collection of re-enacting films and videos from the 1980s that can't be found anywhere else, or else we've tried to find them for nostalgia's sake, but did our own digging and presenting the results of our treasure hunt here. Some are taken from VHS originals or DVD transfers from those VHS copies. Originals were in Standard Def or Videotaped off of TV when they first aired. Some shot professionally and others by individuals with "portable" home video cameras on their shoulders.
Some Classic Re-enacting videos are already searchable on RU-vid, but we wanted to start a new series of some rarely or never before seen classics that either only aired once or where short lived and available only to a select few at the time. We hope you enjoy. These programs presented in this RE-ENACTING RETRO series are presented for the enjoyment of all and we don't claim them for ourselves.

While I was not there my family was chiefly responsible for the entire affair as I'm a descendant of the Henry family.Patrick is my sixth or seventh grandfather on my mother's side.My sister became a DAR member several years back as she submitted the necessary proofs.I'm in the process of becoming an SAR member presently.

the final victory didn't come until 1783, when the Marquis de Lafayette sailed under orders of the French king and by Rochambeau's directions with a combined Spanish-French army of 25,000, to seize British possessions in the Caribbean then come to the "aid" of the Americans. Neither the British nor the Americans welcomed this, for different reasons, so they signed the Paris agreement, ending the war. But it was another nine years before all of General Clinton's soldiers left the New York area. The things they didn't tell you in school, or at the theatres.

@peterderiemer3854 4 года назад

Sorry can't check your dates,1783 is when the last Brit troops left New York!

@nwofoe2866 4 года назад

it's true what I wrote. At Paris, Britain was demanding exclusive trading rights - i.e., they could set buy-and-sell prices for everything, obviously to their advantage and to the impoverishment of the Americans, also enabling them to stay on top of European rivals. America's leaders were still fond of Lafayette - he was welcomed back decades later and many towns named after him - but at this time, they understood him to still be a young man under the orders of Rochambeau and the French King. America had nothing to match the army Lafayette was bringing, and the French had old scores to settle w/England there in North America.

Truly a wonderful and amazing sight! One of a bucket list of places I'd like to have visited if the portals of time were opened by God to me.

Extract from Thomas Jefferson to William Stephens Smith Paris Nov. 13. 1787. the people can not be all, & always, well informed. the part which is wrong [. . .] will be discontented in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. if they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. we have had 13. states independant 11. years. there has been one rebellion. that comes to one rebellion in a century & a half for each state. what country before ever existed a century & half without a rebellion? & what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms. the remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon & pacify them. what signify a few lives lost in a century or two? the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. it is it’s natural manure.

Jefferson hated my ancestor Patrick Henry.He advocated praying for his death to James Madison in a letter.He only grudgingly gave respect to Patrick because Henry wanted him investigated for fleeing Virginia while governor.Jefferson held the grudge until death and badmouthed Patrick within two years of his own death in 1826.

@paultoy9611 4 года назад

@@txnetcop Jefferson also hated Patrick because Henry was an anti Federalist.Henry wanted to improve inter cooperation between strongly sovereign states but was against the proposed Constitution because he felt it massed or gave too much opportunity to mass federal power.I believe my ancestor was correct.He only became subject to the idea after he leveraged inclusion of a Bill of Rights.Henry,because he was an anti Federalist, I believe is short changed as being a much more instrumental foundation to USA freedom.All people usually reference about him is the "give me liberty..." speech when he's much more involved as I already mentioned in the battle over what our nation is to become re the Bill of Rights.He was also key to beginning the yearning for freedom by his Stamp Act Resolves in 1765.
