BRACK: Founding Fathers of 1776? Most were relatively younger men

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher | Here at the end of the year, let’s air some thoughts squirreled away.

FOUNDING FATHERS: You hear all sorts of references to our “founding fathers.” Many were relatively young, that is, under 40 in 1776.

But did you ever stop to realize just how young these people we venerate as our founders of this country really were? It might surprise you.
