Just a wild guess from an ex-pat Brit. Is it Paul Revere? I believe there is a town called Revere in MA?

I will give you the answer this afternoon... He is not thought of very often, but made a big impact as a leader.

Great day to Vote too..

Having got Paul Revere wrong I too will go with old Cas as my next choice although I cannot think of a place named after him. I had never heard of him till I emigrated from the UK to Illinois and my kid's school had the day off to celebrate.

You have to be careful when re-sizing layers that you hold down the "shift" key so that you do not distort that layer as you have done here. Hope that helps . . .

Hey Cornishpete and Robbie7,

No, it's neither of those people ..... Perhaps you've never heard of this Revolutionary Officer, but he is remembered in our neighborhood of Valley Forge....
