Revolutionary War hero Wentworth Cheswell's profile

Question

Hello all! Wentworth Cheswell now has a profile! He rode with Paul Revere to warn the British were coming. He is also considered the first African-American elected to a public office. He has some other notables in his family too. His father was a master carpenter.

I don't do much pre-1800 work and would love if anyone would like to add information to his profile as well as those of his parents and grandfather, Richard. He also needs Revolutionary War stickers and categories.

Eventually all his children will need profiles too.

Thanks for any help!

Answer 1

OK, give me some time and I will load this one up with SAR and DAR, and other revolutionary war data. :)

You rock! thanks, Ed. Yes, I forgot to mention he's a SAR/DAR ancestor.

I have been working on tons of sar/dar stuff.  It's not just slap stickers on it either.  bear with me while I add the info.

I hear ya. Thanks!

There, all better looking now with proper SAR and DAR info.

The category in the template needs help!

Also, please use {{1776 Sticker|unit=|rank=}}. The old sticker {{1776}} is being phased out. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Template:1776_Sticker  Since that category isn't yet part of the structure, it will be reviewed by the 1776 project.

Thank you so much, Ed. It's fabulous! The descendants are going to love this addition. And thank you Natalie for the sticker help.

It's a nice profile, folks!
