 She was a woman who gave two husbands to the American Revolution. One died on the field of battle. The other died in a British ship POW camp. He died on the boat. But she did a lot of stuff with her life. She was a person that owned a small business back in the early 1800s, something that you didn't see a lot of. Most of us know her by a different name, though, and that name is Betsy Ross.
