Explore Mansfield’s 18th century history as an agricultural community and its active participation in the American Revolution. This exhibit follows the town’s response to the Lexington Alarm, the men serving on the frontlines of Bunker Hill and the New York campaigns, and the home front community that supplied and fed the soldiers, their families, and the fight for independence.
