If Paul Revere or anyone else from 1770s-era Revolutionary Boston suddenly dropped into Boston today, would they recognize any buildings or streets? Would they know where they were? Join me as I take a quick walking tour of 3 sites that Paul Revere would recognize if he were in Boston today!

Hi Katie, did the freedom trail in grammar school 40 or so years ago, lol... I don't know if Revere's house is part of the trail, but we did a tour of his house and that was the coolest part i thought. Most recently i followed the freedom trail in Fallout 4, lol

John, the biography of Samuel Adams by John C Miller contains a lot of good information on the Sons of Liberty. There should be some used copies on eBay which is where I found it. It was published in 1936 in Boston by Little, Brown and Company. Title: “Sam Adams, Pioneer in Propaganda”

The Loyal Nine (also spelled Loyall Nine) were nine American patriots from Boston who met in secret to plan protests against the Stamp Act of 1765. Mostly middle-class businessmen, the Loyal Nine enlisted Ebenezer Mackintosh to rally large crowds of commoners to their cause and provided the protesters with food, drink, and supplies. A precursor to the Sons of Liberty, the group is credited with establishing the Liberty Tree as a central gathering place for Boston patriots.

Born just outside Boston and have worked in the city almost my entire life and...I'm a history buff. My daily walk from South Station to my office crossed paths with The Freedom Trial every day, School Street included. But it still wasn't until a few years ago that my wife, also a native, and I actually walked the Freedom Trail for the first time, we're both in our 50's. I was familiar with a lot of the sites along the trail but not all of them and even for us it was fascinating. At the end we chose to visit the USS Constitution instead of Bunker Hill, I'd already been to both in the past but the Constitution is really amazing and my favorite stop on the walk. It, more than anything else, makes you feel like you've gone back in time and it a perfect way to end the tour.

I am British, I know, I know, boo, hiss😅 I have only recently discovered Katies channel and I absolutely love it. Being Scottish my main interest over the years has centered on the history of my own clan and more recently the Border Reivers. Inexplicably the Revolutionary War is not taught to any great depth in Britain, which is a great shame. I recently decided to look in more depth at the War of Independence and decided to get an overview before committing to more in depth literature, so I thought I would give Katie a go. So far it has been fascinating, it is like having my own travel guide. And oh my lord, that accent, I could listen to her all day long.

I also worked in Boston so I visited all the historical sites on a regular basis. I also attended church at Park Street next to the common. Suzi Berlin who lives over buy the old north church did daily tours around Boston on Periscope from 2015 -2021. One of my favorite highlights was going to the top of Old North Church even got to go out on the balcony. Also visited the crypt few times.

Sounds as if you possibly enjoy solitude more than the crowd yet you are an excellent communicator! Your sadness and shock at the visitation of Paul's resting place is noteworthy.I think we all know Paul would not have recognized the flag hanging on Kings Chapel on Fremont St.. And more than likely his reaction to an explanation of it would have been, " What the ....!!!" Keep up the Great Work Katie!!! If our founders were alive today do you think they would be seen as honorable community leaders, or as enemies of the nation they helped to establish? No need to reply yet it is a question each of us should reflect on in these times! Take care and look forward to your future teachings.

I toured his home a few times many years ago. When I lived in the North End I walked by his house every day to work. It must of been crowded having all those kids in there! lol. The MFA has a good collection of his silverware and I believe that famous painting Copley did is there, too. I did not know that grasshopper weather vane was the original from 1740's. Next time I go back I will definitely look for that.
