Henry Knox was responsible for bringing the 60 cannon the 300 miles from Fort Ticonderoga to Boston during the Revolutionary War. He was the first Secretary of War for the United States and responsible for getting Washington's troop's across the Delaware. He was a bookstore owner in Boston (at the time of the Boston Massacre), and married to a woman whose parents were devout English loyalists. When the patriots drove the British out of Boston, in large part due to the cannon Knox got from Toconderoga, her parents left Boston and she never saw them again.
