MISS ALICE – TAVERN OWNER/SPY

Alice, the owner of the tavern, is a fictional character. Her tavern was a meeting place for both Patriots and Loyalists in the course of the film, All For Liberty. Alice is based on women who inherited taverns from a ship captain husband or various other pathways. As tavern keepers they were essential to certain patriot spy activities, and political intrigue. In the course of  the film, Miss Alice is very clever and careful to get information to Captain Felder when he comes into Charleston from the Backcountry. She goes a little too far however, and finds out what can happen while the British still held power in South Carolina.
