For years, Jeryn Konezny has searched for the stories of Revolutionary era women in their own words. Her research into the primary source material of women in Colonial America started during the COVID pandemic — she spent hours diving into the letters, diaries, newspaper articles, and pension applications available online. The Daughters of Liberty is a year-long project by Jeryn Konezny & The Glinda Factor that celebrates the courageous women who supported the Patriot cause and contributed to the founding of America.
