Molly Pitcher was a woman that became a famous figure during the American Revolutionary War. The Battle of Monmouth, New Jersey, was fought on a scorchingly hot day in June of 1778.
Mary Hays' water bucket was a most welcome sight to the soldiers who nicknamed her Molly Pitcher. She drew water from a local spring to give aid to the soldiers, and to help wash out the cannon after it had been fired.
During the battle, Mary's husband William, fell from a heat stroke. She took his place and helped the crew fire the cannon.
Molly Pitcher, serves as a representative of all women who fought valiantly in the American Revolutionary War.
