Who Started Tar And Feathering?

January 24, 2024 by Diane Mitchell

Who Started Tar And Feathering? Tarring and feathering dated back to the days of the Crusades and King Richard the Lionhearted. It began to appear in New England seaports in the 1760s and was most often used by patriot mobs against loyalists. Tar was readily available in shipyards and feathers came from any handy pillow.
