I have never heard of this. And it seems out of place in this article. What do others think? --Think Fast 23:08, 11 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The daughters of liberty did exist.. there is no flaw in history to suggest otherwise. women have always looked out for their rights and liberties and through supporting revolutionary leaders they intended to gain these rights, perhaps even a right to vote. i continually question without the support of these women, without their homespun cloth and consistant rejection of british goods and the disregard of the mercantile system, would the revolution have been successful??

behind every successful man is an even greater woman. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.180.218.6 (talk) 02:05, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I did not mean to suggest that the Daughters of Liberty did not exist or that women were not important in shaping the US. I think that women were and are very important and influential. I just meant that I doubted the truth of the part of the article concerning George Washington getting his peas poisoned. --Think Fast 21:37, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have heard of the peas story; I have never heard of the other, but it sounds believable. When I have more time on my hands I will try to find other sources and clean up the style (this should really not be centered and more importantly does not sound like an encyclopedia article - no offence meant.)

Having found a little time on my hands, I have made an effort to improve this section. Tell me what you think. Andymorrow 00:51, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

New recruit!

I have a few more girls who were in the Daughters of Liberty:

12 year old Anna Green was part of her sewing group to support the Daughters of Liberty. She spun clothes for boycotters.

15 year old Charity Clark spun wool in her home in New York. In a letter she wrote these words:

Heroines may not distinguish themselves at the head of an Army, but freedom [will] also be won by a fighting army of [women]... armed with spinning wheels."

NOT TRUE

This artical says that the daughters of liberty only assisted the sons of liberty, while they actualy did more! While the sons of liberty sat around a table the daughters of liberty were removing the stamp act!

Daughters of Liberty - 20th Century Order

The Daughters of Liberty was also a more recent patriotic order, according to an article on page 6 of the 13 Oct 1909 edition of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Over a thousand members were attending the group's three-day Pennsylvania state convention at the Odd Fellow Temple in Philadelphia, the article said. The group's objectives were 1) support for public schools, 2) prayer in school, and 3) opposition to immigration. The next annual meeting was to be held in Allentown, Pennsylvania. See Patriotic Order Opens Convention. I will leave it to others to sort out how to handle this. fyi. Pnoble805 (talk) 20:49, 25 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
