What were George Washington's accomplishments during the American Revolution?

George Washington was in charge of the Continental Army in the American Revolution. Many of the troops only joined the army because they trusted and admired Washington. On December 25, 1776, Washington's troops rowed across the Delaware River to New Jersey where they attacked the Hessians at Trenton. The Americans captured and killed over 900 Hessians and seized much needed supplies. In September of 1777 General Washington fought against the British general Howe at the Battle at Brandywine. Howe was able to defeat Washington, but failed in capturing him. During the Winter at Valley Forge, Washington kept his troops together and encouraged them to keep their pride in being Americans. Lieutenant Colonel John Brooks wrote that the army stayed together because of "Love for the County." The troops also stayed for love of Washington. Private Samuel Downing even went as far as to say that the soldiers would "sell their lives for him." In the Battle of Yorktown, the last major battle of the war, Washington led his troops from the north of the Chesapeake Bay to trap General Cornwallis on the peninsula. Washington and his French allies bombarded Yorktown until Cornwallis finally surrendered.

What are the names of women in the Revolutionary War?

Lydia Darragh was a Quaker, and her beliefs forbid her to get involved with the war. This was an advantage for the British because they could have meetings at her house. She would send the rest of her family to bed and then hide in the closet which was in the meeting room. She heard them plan an attack on General George Washington so she told one of his troops about the British plan to attack. The planned British victory was gone.

How much will a 1789 George Washington dollar sell for?

$1. It's an ordinary circulation coin. Also, it's not gold, just brass. More Information: There was no George Washington dollar minted in 1789. The only coin honoring Washington that could have possibly been minted in that year was an undated one cent coin with a head on both sides. This was probably the only legal 2 headed coin to circulate in the US.
