Independence Day

Arizona groups keeping the history, stories of the Americana Revolution preserved

Although Arizona wasn’t involved in the American Revolutionary War and the state is thousands of miles away from the battlefields of the war with the British, many residents had relatives who fought for the country’s freedom.

For many, Independence Day isn’t just about fireworks and grilling outside. Some Valley residents are preserving their American heritage by sharing their families’ stories for the next generations.
