Description
While you know that the Declaration of Independence was adopted on July 4, 1776, did you realize that for several months after the text was first made public, the names of the signers were withheld for fear of charges of treason? Or that a woman's name appeared on the first copy of the Declaration which published those names? On May 12th you'll have the opportunity to "meet" that woman, Mary Katherine Goddard, as interpreted by local historian, Marilyn Harris.
This presentation is a partnership between the Louttit Library and the West Greenwich Preservation and Heritage Commission.
