🔵 DEERFIELD MASSACRE OF 1704
As a descendant of more than one lucky survivor of the Deerfield Massacre of 1704, I’m looking forward to a new book and virtual program on March 11 from American Ancestors, “The Deerfield Massacre: A Surprise Attack, a Forced March, and the Fight for Survival in Early America.” This program also offers the option to purchase a signed copy of the book. This historical episode is indeed a riveting tale of endurance from the early chapters of American history.
