## Resource

In a quiet Kansas cemetery, a wreath-laying ceremony honored Sarah Ruddell Davis — the only recognized Revolutionary War patriot buried in the state — kicking off America’s 250th anniversary celebrations. Her remarkable life spanned the birth and near-collapse of the nation, from surviving wartime captivity to becoming part of Kansas’ founding legacy through her daughter’s marriage to Thomas Johnson, the county’s founder. This local tribute invites communities to rediscover their own hidden histories — proving greatness often lies right in your backyard.
