Revolution. He is most famous for riding his horse through the
countryside near Boston to warn the colonists that the British were
coming. Revere was also a skilled silversmith (maker of
silverware). Paul Revere was born on January 1, 1735, in Boston,
Massachusetts. His fathers family was French and the family name
was changed from De Revoire to Revere. Paul learned silversmithing
from his father. As a young man Revere joined the Sons of Liberty,
a club for colonists who disliked British rule. Such people were
known as patriots. In 1773 he helped lead the Boston Tea Party
protest where patriots threw British tea into Boston Harbor.
