It was Deborah Sampson who enlisted in the Continental Army as Robert Shurtliff. She did this in order to be able to fight in the American Revolutionary War.
At the time the country was 90% farms, so the majority of the continental army were farmers.
Deborah Sampson enlisted in the Continental Army as Robert Shurtleff.
I guess that she enlisted in Massachusetts because she enlisted to the Fourth Massachusetts Regiment of the Continental Army of Bellingham. I hope I helped! :D
