Sisters' Grandfather Was a Soldier in American Revolutionary War -Enhanced Video/Audio [60 fps]
Ғылым және технология
These sisters, Delia and Bertie Harris, were both born in the 1880s. Their grandfather, Simon Harris, was born in 1766 and was 12 when he enlisted in the Revolutionary War. His son, (the sister's father) was born in 1818 and was in his 70s when Delia and Bertie were born. This is from the TV show "I've got a Secret" and was recorded on April 26, 1961. Video footage has been colorized and restored with audio remastering for clarity.

As a kid in the 80s, i used to ride my bike to the nursing home to see my granddad. His roommate was a WWI vet born in 1892. This guy was very sharp, mentally. I sat for hours listening to this man tell me stories. He was around before cars, before flight. His father fought on the Civil War. He also told me the horrific stories of the battles he and his unit were in in France. I never forgot this guy. He made it to 101 years old. I went to his funeral in 1993. At the time i was in the Army - 82nd Airborne Division. One of the proudest moments in my life was standing in front of his flagged draped casket, in uniform with the Honor Guard and rendering the sharpest salute I've ever rendered. You are missed Mr. Harper!

I was born in 1981. I had a retired school teacher who substituted for the younger grades, and she was born in 1893. She was 93 when I first had her. In my first neighborhood, we had an elderly neighbor whose parents were former slaves. I knew people who, in turn, knew Civil War veterans. And, to top it off, I was close to my great-grandmother, who was born in 1897 and died in 2000. She still remembered going to her great-grandparents house and sitting on the lap of her great-great-grandmother...who was born in 1798 and died in 1901. So, I sat on the lap of a woman who lived to see the age of Playstation 2, and she sat on the lap of a woman who was born when Washington was still living. These people and events were not from a long time ago. We just don't live long enough to see how close it all really was.

The grandfather had a son in 1818 when he was 52 years old. The son had two daughters in the early 1890s when he was in his early 70s. The daughters appeared on the show in 1961. They appear to be in their late 60s or early 70s. It all makes sense.

It must have been strange to fight in the American revolution and then experience the civil war. There is a book about 6 men that fought in the American revolution, they were very young. They all lived to be over 100. Before they died their photographs were taken and they told their stories about the war. One of them had spoken with Washington another had fought under Benedict Arnold. They all lived to see the civil war. I have photographs of my 4th great grandparents. They were born in the late 1700's. They were elderly when the pictures were taken. But l was so amazed that I was looking at people who were alive when Washington was still around.

Frankly, the American Revolution was also a kind of "civil war", as a lot of the colonists were against independence from the Crown; so much so there were numerous Loyalist Militias throughout the colonies, and several of them even joined the Regulars. That led to literally brother fighting against brother, neighbour against neighbour, father against son. In his farewell speech as President, Washington warned against both a bi-partisan political system, and the divide between the Northern and Southern states that could lead to war (the latter part might have been in one of his letters, I can't quite recall). But even in Colonial times, there was a notable divide between the Northern and Southern colonies, as the Northern colonies often disparaged the colonies and colonists down South and treated them with utter disdain and contempt, like how they often referred to Gen. Washington as nothing more than "a dirty pig farmer from Virginia".

I’ve always been fascinated by how few generations our American history actually spans. My own grandfather was born in 1873, 3 years before Custer’s last stand. His father fought in the Confederacy during the Civil War from NC. My grandpa Barker passed when I was very young, but I remember him well singing “John Brown’s body lies a moldering’ in the grave…” I didn’t know who John Brown was at that time, but my grandpa must’ve heard his dad singing it as a kid. Years later, I met my grandpa’s younger half brother, who showed me a bayonet his dad had brought back to NC from the war in 1865. He said they’d used it as a fireplace poker for years. He remembered how my great grandfather told of being in a battle in Virginia where most of his company was killed and he was captured. The were taken to a prison camp he called “Pint Lookout” and “turned loose” some months later. After some research, I verified my gr grandpa John Barker had been captured near Burkesville, Va on April 6, 1865 and imprisoned at Point Lookout, MD Union prison and released on June 23, 1865.
In 1989 I met a man whose father fought at Appomattox. He told me everyone always corrected him and said, you must mean your grandfather. But it was his father he explained his father had been born in 1850, and he had kids in his fifties. It made sense. The man was in his 90s at the time. He showed me his father’s sword

It’s interesting that 200 years ago couples were not afraid of having large families. In an agrarian culture everyone had something to offer even at a young age. Child mortality rates were high but large families were considered a blessing. Comparatively today, child mortality rates are very low but having more than 2.5 children is considered irresponsible, while swimming in exorbitant wealth is considered a prudent.

Having large families is not uncommon, especially in the 1800s! Looking through my family history, there are several distant relatives, that had 11 children! There was about 20 years from the 1st child born, to the last one.
Imagine this today, people can't remember what happened last week..
All these stories are fascinating! My own family history…..I was born in 1973, my father 1902, my grandfather in 1857 and great grandfather in 1814.

Absolutely bonkers. When you think about it, our country is only like 3 people old and that's wild. It has changed so rapidly.
Love hearing these stories. My great grandfather x 11, Adam Eichelberger, was a Captain in the Revolutionary War, Infantry 3rd Battalion of York County, Pennsylvania. The announcement of his promotion was signed by John Morton, a speaker of the Pennsylvania Provisional Assembly and is one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
My Grandfather survived the Battle of the Muse-Argonne and lived an adventurous life and settled down and had my father at the age of 72 . My Father had me at the age 33. At 29 I am one of the youngest Grandchildren of a World War 1 veteran in the world .

Harrison Tyler (alive today at age 94) has a grandfather born in 1790 (President John Tyler).
My maternal grandmother, born in 1890, got a celebratory 'hug' from an old man in 1897 at the street party celebrating Queen Victoria's diamond jubilee. What was special about it? Well, he had been a drummer boy at the Battle of Waterloo in June of 1815, and had been badly wounded. He survived the night under a cannon limber, kept warm by his father, one of Wellington's soldiers. He asked my grandmother to 'pass it on to her children'. She did so, to her daughter, my mom, and I passed it on to my daughter when she was seven, and to her daughter when SHE was seven, and so it goes on....
My family is quite similar. My great grandfather was the first of my dad's side of the family to be born in the states in 1847, his mother had been pregnant on the ship over from Ireland. My grandfather was one of the last of his children, being born in 1892, then My dad was the last of his children and he was born in 1942 and then I was the last of his in 1996. So I have a great grandfather that lived through the civil war, a grandfather who lived during the wild west and ww1 and a father that grew up during ww2 and the korean war who also went on to fight in Vietnam. I sadly did not get to meet either of my grandparents as they died in 72 and 88.

My husband's family always said that great grandfather was fully native American, but my daughter did a DNA test and found she had no native American DNA but 1% African DNA. (Her being blond and blue eyed we never would've guess). After searching we found that in 1720 a man was brought from Guinea Africa to Jamaica then to New York, he was my husband's 6th great grandfather! His son fought in the American revolution and his application for a pension had his fathers information, its very rare to be able to trace the actual story of how, were and when a African ancestor comes to America, also the application for the pension is in the national archives.

Lots of white Americans have black ancestors they don't know about, having blonde hair and blue eyes means nothing those are recessive traits but you could have a full black grandparent and still be born with blonde hair and blue eyes just like at Meghan Markle and Prince Harry with their ginger kids. Also if your native American ancestor was from a very long time ago it might not even be in your DNA anymore, unless it's reintroduced it just gets less and less with each generation until ti's gone completely.

Well the DNA test when talking about ethnicity are maybe less accurate than predicting the weather. Look closely in the small print, they tell you it’s a guess and that over time with more samples they MIGHT become more accurate. Their DNA pools are new, and most everyone has had some mixture in their blood when their sample is donated. And ethnicity testing is looking at markers that only show up with the traits you show, not the same markers that determine if you’re related to another person or not. Also the further away you’re related, it’s less and less accurate because similar people from similar areas are going to have similar markers, so always take it with a grain of salt. And if they are promising you your ethnicity, and you’re ancestors aren’t always all from the same country, take a shaker full. Also odd numbers don’t exist in ethnicity percentages. So if anything says something like 37%, you are not 37% anything, you are showing markers like the ethnicity by 37%, not 37% of your blood is that ethnicity. And many ethnicities are similar to one another in traits because of similar climate, but are from opposite parts of the planet.

The main documentation for the claim is an application that their grandmother once submitted for benefits as a Revolutionary War widow. The application was based on what her late husband had told her about his experiences.
Iirc, the last widow receiving Civil War pension benefits died in the early 2000s. She had been the girlfriend of the veteran’s grandson, and as the vet neared death, she married him instead, got the pension when he died, and then married the grandson as planned. So she and the grandson were able to collect those benefits all during their married life, a nice little safety net for them. I just have to respect that kind of gaming of the system, lol, what a canny old vet.
I was at a funeral last year and the priest announced that the deceased’s great-grandson would deliver a eulogy. A man in his late twenties/early thirties got up, carrying his toddler with him. He said “for those who don’t know, my son isn’t the great-grandson - I am”. He then spoke about how wonderful it was to get to live for so many years having his great- grand-mother in his life, and how thrilled she has been to spend a couple years with her great-great-grandson.
