(1864) Photograph of an American Revolutionary War veteran, Lemuel Cook (1759-1866). He served with the 2nd Continental Light Dragoons and was wounded several times in combat. He fought in the siege of Yorktown and witnessed the surrender of General Cornwallis in October of 1781. [800×1073]
I find it fascinating that his man was born a colonist, fought for and saw the birth of a nation, experienced that nation’s dissolution, and ultimate resolution and reunification all in one lifetime.
