Which side are you on? That's the question that every single person in Connecticut had to answer in 1775, as the thirteen colonies began a rebellion against British rule. Loyalty was not only a matter of worlds or opinion. For soldiers and civilians alike, loyalty could mean loss of fortune, of friends and even of life.

This presentation from Connecticut's Museum of Culture and History (formerly the Connecticut Historical Society) will reveal stories--some well-known, some obscure --of Nutmeggers who risked and sacrificed to support their chosen side.
