Which detail from the text best supports your answer from part A? Molly Pitcher, originally known as Mary Ludwig, was born in Trenton, New Jersey, in 1754 to German immigrant parents.
What she did learn, though, was the value of hard work. Her father was a butcher, and her parents consistently instilled in her the importance of working hard.
Mary took a job as a household servant to Dr. and Mrs. Irvine in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, when she was in her teens. While there, she met William (also known
as John) Hays, a barber.
Shortly after, in 1773, her husband's name was recorded on a list of supporters for the boycott of British Tea.
