I try to include a damsite walk whenever I visit Ollie. I'd like to recommend Fed Kidder's book. The First NH regiment under Stark (12 companies, I think the largest group that was with Washington when he crossed the Delaware) was the only regiment that actually got across on that first night (4 AM). Washington's other 2 regiments failed to cross at that time. There were many New Ipswich soldiers in that group. https://archive.org/stream/historyoffirstne01kidd/historyoffirstne01kidd_djvu.txt
