The Alamance County Historical Museum
cordially invites you to join us for tea and
to learn about
The Edenton Tea Party of 1774
In the fall of 1774, fifty-one women in Edenton, North Carolina undertook a revolutionary act: they signed a resolution in protest of British taxation policies and boycotted British goods.
Later remembered as the Edenton Tea Party, this event was the first time a group of women came together in a written political protest in all of the thirteen colonies! Join Katie Hatton,
the Colonial Records Editor with the NC State Office of Archives and History, as she explores what the Edenton Resolves were, why women came together to sign the document, and
what happened to some of the women during and after the Revolutionary War that followed.
