  •  
    He employed Alexander Gardner, James Gardner, Timothy H. O'Sullivan, William Pywell, George N. Barnard, Thomas C. Roche, and seventeen other men, each of whom was given a traveling darkroom, to go out and photograph scenes from the Civil War. Brady generally stayed in Washington, D.C., organizing his assistants and rarely visited battlefields personally. This may have been due, at least in part, to the fact that Brady's eyesight had begun to deteriorate in the 1850s.

    John Cabots second voyage was on May 2, 1498 . . a year later
  •  
    the reason why he explored and went on voyages is because he wanted to prove that there was a quicker way to the Indies than Christopher Columbus's route.
  •  
    John Cabot's real name was Giovanni Caboto.
  •  
    He was born in Genoa, Italy. His father was a merchant.
  •  
    In 1497, he made his first voyage for the king of England. His ship was called the "The Mathew."
  •  
    He went on the ship with a crew of 18 men and it only weighed 50 tons!
  •  
    He had a second voyage and on the way back his ship sunk and they think that happened in 1499. England claimed ownership of the North America because of John Cabot.

    He sailed twice to Newfoundland. The first time he didn't touch land. The second time however, he did touch land near Maine and Quebec. Cabot died in 1499 when he was 49 years old.

Thomas Preston (British Army officer) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

  • Captain Thomas Preston (c. 1722 – c. 1798)[1] was an officer of the 29th Regiment of Foot who was present at the Boston Massacre on March 5, 1770.[2] He was acquitted of all charges in a trial held in Boston, Massachusetts. Future United States President John Adams was his attorney. Two of his men, Hugh Montgomery and Mathew Kilroy, were found guilty of manslaughter and branded on the thumb with a hot iron. After his trial, Preston retired from the army and reportedly settled in Ireland, though Adams recalled seeing him in London in the 1780s.
