Administrative History
In 1925 the Commissioner of Education appointed the Executive Committee on the 150th Anniversary of the American Revolution to develop a plan for statewide observances of events that occurred during 1776 and 1777 in New York. Peter Nelson, Supervisor of Public Records in the Division of Archives and History, was selected as Executive Secretary of the committee and charged with planning the State's role in observances designated by the committee.
