About the event
In 1776 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. Attorney Marc A. McKithen will lead visitors on a walking tour of colonial Trenton, introducing the people who lived here in 1776, their amusements, loyalties, and fears. Tour starts and ends in the historic Trenton Quaker Meetinghouse.
