Okay got a question.....we know about Paul Revere, he was captured and someone had to finish the ride for him. Plus other men helped him. It really makes me angry Sybil Ludington gets no mention or credit. She rode further that Revere. Why?

Because of the Longfellow poem, I expect. During his life, he was recognized more for his business and social connections than the ride. There is also the fact that "Paul Revere" is the sort of name a romantic hero would have, like Jonathan Harker, or Inigo Montoya, or Chase Devineaux. It came ready-made to be shaped into American legend.

That's a good response. I was hoping that @Jacqueline Hyde the librarian would have some to say about this. and LOL at romantic heroes like "Chase Devineaux".
