General Henry Knox is an unsung hero of the Revolutionary War. His intelligence and vision often ignored or barely glossed over by many standard history books - perhaps due in part to a self-effacing nature that was content to put ideas into action without requiring personal aggrandizement. Perhaps his attitude was colored by his working class background, for he was never fully accepted in the Tory society of pre-Revolutionary Boston. He was an inner city child, without formal education, who was destitute at age 9 and worked to support his mother and brother. December of 1775, General George Washington assigned Knox, a 25 year old Bostonian, to be Commander of Artillery. General Knox died unexpectedly in 1806. He was buried in Thomaston.
