Who is your person and when and where was Molly Pitcher born??

Hi! My name is Ludwig Hays McCauley and I was named Molly Pitcher for bringing pitchers of water to the thirsty soldiers. I was born on a small farm near Trenton, New Jersey on October 13, 1754. My brothers' names are Joshua, Joseph, and Carl. My mother's name is Gretchen and my father's name is John. I was married to John Hays and I wanted to serve the army because I couldn't send my husband alone into war, so I joined him.

Some of the information is a little repetitive, but all in all it is very good. She is lesser known person from the war and it is nice to see women getting their respect.
