from the Colonial and Civil War eras, who would you choose?

 

I am curious what others would choose as their "must do" figures of American history from 1600 to the late 1800s.

 

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

 

That's a hard one. Off the top of my head these people come to mind:

 

George Washington

Abe Lincoln

Benjamin Franklin (Love him!)

John Adams

Thomas Jefferson

Abigail Adams

Harriet Tubman

Jefferson Davis

I'd probably add one or two earlier figures like John Winthrop and/or Miles Standish, William Penn, and John Smith. Pocahontas would be a good one to consider too.
