Washington’s teeth has such a deep background. Same with “Leather goods” at the time that were NOT from animal. A lot of people aren’t taught in school what was common at this time, and it’s so bad they think it’s fake. My grandma still doesn’t believe me when I have told her about these things, even though I’m a teacher and have education on it.

Please tell us more. I love this. I read a book called "Lies My Teacher Told Me" and it changed my view. No, I'm not trying to sell it. I just think everyone should read it.

Also 5’6 was a pretty average height for a man in Europe back then! Humans overall have gotten a lot taller.

I could be wrong, but doesn’t the “cake” in that quote actually refer to a type of bread instead of the sweet frosted cakes we think of today because it was called cake in that time period?

The early colonies were not founded for freedom of religion. They were joint stock companies for profit. The later proprietary colonies sponsored state religion.
