In May 1775, a full fourteen months prior to the signing of the Declaration of Independence at the Second Continental Congress in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on 4 July 1776, the Contintental Army and contingents of the British Army and Navy fought a serious skirmish outside of Boston, Massachusetts sometimes called the Battle of Chelsea Creek.

The Continental Army drove them out of the area. That British vessel was never found after she sunk in the tributary…until now. They think that they have found her. Here is the story.
