The American Revolution
In honor of Independence Day 2023, the Morris County Office of Planning and Preservation simultaneously released two projects regarding the American Revolution. The first is a StoryMap that illustrates the county’s pivotal role in the struggle, follows Washington’s Travels, and illustrates locations of battles in which Morris County soldiers participated.
The second project is a comprehensive list of Morris County soldiers who served in the struggle for independence. A companion video accompanied this project.
