About the event

In 1775 Trenton was a young community of only 500 souls. The Continental and British armies each brought 1500 fighting men to town, overwhelming Trenton’s small spaces, limited accommodations, and modest supplies of food, water, and wood. Historian Dr. Sharon Holt and attorney Marc A. McKithen lead visitors on an 8 block walking tour of colonial Trenton, introducing you to the people living here in 1775, their amusements, loyalties, fears, and tribulations. Commencing from the Trenton Friends Meertinghouse, it will conclude there as well for refreshments and a chance to ask questions.
