Adams spent a majority of her time at home tending to the soldiers camped out in her front yard, while her husband, John Adams was traveling. She was also commissioned by the Massachusetts Colony General court to question fellow women to see if they were true Patriots or Tories. In addition, when officials realized they had not brought bullets or gun powder when the British fired on Boston’s Harbor, Adams quickly melted steel and metals from her household and made bullets for the soldiers. They recognized her from this as a loyal and faithful woman. (Revolutionary-war.net). Adams attributions to the men in the war kept her legacy alive today. She is seen as one of the most recognized woman from the Revolutionary War and has won herself a high place in American letters. Her devotedness and patriotism made her a trustworthy person in that time. She was also a looked-up to advocate for women's rights and always reminded her husband and other men to “remember the ladies.” (history.com). Her promotion of women's rights made her a role model among women in that time, and may have contributed to women’s freedom
