Doctors in Yorktown used many of these tools and ointments to helpthe sick and injured.
The "Kitchen" was used to cook items over an open flame while the soldiers were at war.
This is an example of the canons used during the Revolutionary War.
Officers often had items such as a writing table and chair in their tent.
Laundry was washed by women who would sometimes come to be with their husbands.
High-ranking officers would have a wooden floor in their tent as well as a cot and other furniture.
Four to six men slept in a tent of this size.
A lean-to, such as this, was used by the women who would cook, care for the sick, or wash laundry.
While in Yorktown, the students were shown how a musket works.
Farmers would dry their tobacco, the cash crop, in a Tobacco House.
Fifth grade students enjoyed their Yorktown field trip. Email the webmaster
