About this event
Mary Baldwin Room, Main Level. Long overlooked in the history of the American Revolution, an enslaved woman, Elizabeth, or “Liss,” was deeply connected to the lead Manhattan agent in the Culper Spy Ring, a group of spies working for the American cause. She endured treachery from both sides of the conflict in her personal fight for freedom. Historian and author Claire Bellerjeau will share the story of Liss in this one-hour program. Registration is required. Sponsored by the Friends of the Cheshire Public Library.
