    Molly Pitcher was a nickname given to a woman said to have fought in the American Revolutionary War. Since various Molly Pitcher tales grew in the telling, many historians regard Molly Pitcher as folklore, rather than history, or suggest that Molly Pitcher may be a composite image inspired by the actions of a number of real women. The name itself may have originated as a nickname given to women who carried water to men on the battlefield during the war.

    During the Battle of Monmouth on June 28, 1778 the fighting was fierce and intense. The heat of battle was searing, and the soldiers' throats were parched. Many were exhausted and wounded. All through the day - amidst the smoke and fire of the fighting - a private's young wife, Mrs. John Hays, carried water in a pitcher back and forth from a well to her husband and his fellow artillery gunners. Thus, the nickname Molly Pitcher.

      Slaves in the time of George Washington's time were treated with no respect. the slaves would get sold for tobacco and money.also even when the black people were free they would still have to respect all the white people because they weren't treated the same as other free citizens.like there was a woman named Francis and she was a free African American that wasn't treated the same as the whites she would go to court for thingts she would do and wipe her. then she went to court again and they made her become a slave for 10 years. then her owner told her if he dies she was free but that didn't happen to her. the slave owner died and she went back to court because they didn't believe her so the family of the died slave owner got the slave to work for them for the rest of there life.
