So I found this information on a snazzy website called the "journal of the American Revolution"
(you can subscribe and they send you that good American Rev content straight to your email. Free)
ANYWAY, around the new year they posted this blog titled "who was the most promising person of the founding era?"
"During the Founding Era, which we'll consider as 1765 thru 1805, who was the most promising person, military or political, whose life was cut short before they could achieve their full potential?"
I mean, I personally would say John Laurens. But then again I don't know an awful lot about the other people on this list.
The list:
• The Unknown Soldier (basically someone who died before they could accomplish anything)
•John Laurens (of South Carolina)
•John Paul Jones
•Dr. Joseph Warren
•John Thomas
•John Money
•Alexander Hamilton (imagine if this overachiever lived-)
•Nathanael Greene
(oops I forgot half the list)
•Nathan Hale
•Pontiac
•Samuel Nicholas
•Phillip Vickers Fithian
•Count Grabowski
•Archibald Bulloch
•Richard Montgomery
•one very sick youth from Massachusetts
