Thank you! I can't get enough of your writing about the Culpers. I am a later-comer to your book and the show, and I am dismayed at how little material there is to read/watch to continue my learning about it. I work in the town of Wethersfield, CT, and I am delighted that I have this very tenuous connection to Tallmadge. :) Keep up the good work - I'm reading it!
Alex, George Washington never learned the names of the Culper spies and didn’t want to in order to protect them after initially suggesting he meet Abraham Woodhull at headquarters and being talked out of it. Only Benjamin Tallmadge and the spies knew all the players, according to my research.

Glad to hear it, and thanks for letting me know.
