Kingston Colonial Days
Each year, the City of Kingston, New York, commemorates the American Revolutionary War events of 1777. During the American Revolutionary War, the city of Kingston became New York’s first capital. In retaliation, the British sailed up the Hudson River and burned the city. Since most of the city’s men were fighting the British elsewhere, the city was abandoned. The British burned over 300 buildings. The Wiltwyck Chapter, NSDAR, supports this event by offering tours of their historic home.
