Women's History: Trivia, Firsts & Other Musings: Volume I circa 1438 through 1799 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798437709870)

[Excerpt] Women in the Americas had to take their case to court to get any form of payment or pension for their military service: April 4, 1795 - "A female citizen appeared at the court upon crutches. Having devoted herself to the care of the sick in the advanced post of the army she had her thigh broke by a bomb shell. She prays for relief. Referred to a committee directed to report back tomorrow." Aurora General Advertiser, Philadelphia, PA
