Christopher Seider (1759-1770)

You are the son of a poor German immigrant laborer, living on Frog Lane, near the Liberty Tree.
Though still in school, you work as a servant to a rich elderly widow.
You love stories about military heroes.
When you are eleven you join other boys protesting in front of the shop importing and selling British goods. When a Loyalist intervenes, violence results and you are fatally shot.
Your death becomes a rallying cry for the Patriots, and over 2,000 people attend your funeral.
