Peddocks Island - Fort Andrews

Prior to Euro-American colonization, Indigenous Peoples inhabited the island seasonally. Settlers then began occupying the land around 1634. Due to its proximity to the mainland, Peddocks held a prominent military role for the following centuries. Said to be the site of a patriot infantrymen's raid on a Loyalist farm, Peddocks also saw over 600 patriot militiamen stationed on the island in 1776 to guard the harbor against the return of British troops.

French Marines arrived in August 1778 with additional troops in 1782 and occupied several positions around the outer harbor, centered around Hull from Fort Independence (1) and including Noddle’s Island (with a hospital), George’s Island, Lovell’s Island (decoy), Peddock’s Island, and Hog Island (1782)

Home to Fort Andrews and active in harbor defense from 1904 to the end of World War II, 26 structures remain, including guardhouses, prisoner-of-war barracks, stables, a gymnasium, and a firehouse.

(Fort Independence 1 was on Telegraph Hill in Hull, the current Fort Independence at Castle Island was called Fort Warren originally. The one in Hull was renamed Fort Revere.)

This is one of the many connections of how America and Britain forgave the past and became allies during the World Wars, solidifying them into the prophesied Anglo-American World Power as described in Daniel.
