History on Tap: The Otis Family: West Barnstable’s Revolutionaries

Cape Cod’s Otis family from West Barnstable played a major role in the American Revolution. Sister and brother Mercy Otis Warren and James Otis were leading voices of the era, yet they are often overlooked in history books. Join Nancy Shoemaker from the Barnstable Historical Society to explore the impact of these 'Siblings of Liberty' on local and national history. The program will also highlight stories of other remarkable women from Barnstable, including their roles at sea during this transformative time.
