Who was there? [Dodd Room]
There were no TV cameras or documentary makers at the event, it was 1761.
Some eyewitness accounts exist but not many and it's difficult to get a balanced view because they were written from the view of the gentlemen doing the Government's work.
What is known are names of those who died or were wounded.
How they became injured and what their job was has been imagined. However the name, injury and where they are from is from documented sources. Anything in green is true and made-up information is in orange.
