History of Site:
Lexington Battle Green: Location of battle in 1775 that triggered the start of the American Revolution. A monument stands on the green. Completed on July 4, 1799, on what was originally the site of the Town's first schoolhouse, this first monument of the Revolution is the oldest war memorial in the country. The remains of the colonists slain in the Battle of Lexington were moved here in 1835 from their common grave in the Old Burying Ground. Buckman's Tavern also housed the first village store in Lexington, and later, in 1812, the first town post office. The Lexington Common Tomb is on the Lexington Green at the center of town. The men buried here were killed by British troops on the morning of April 19, 1775.

The Old Burying Ground: Gravestones begin in the 1690's. It also contains the graves of Governor William Eustis and Reverend John Hancock, grandfather of the first signer of the Declaration of Independence. One British Soldier lies by himself here.

Battle Road - Lincoln/ Lexington: After dispersing the Lexington militia, the Redcoats marched on to Concord where a battle with a large patriot contingent forced a bloody retreat back to Lexington and then to Boston.
Revolutionary War Monument and Common Tomb of those killed at the Battle of Lexington, April 19, 1775.

Nature of Haunting:
Lexington Green: Figures seen on the green. A woman around Buckman's Tavern on the green is seen outside and on the second floor.

The Old Burying Ground: Most Cemeteries, especially older ones, can have some form of activity.

Battle Road: British soldiers are buried along the trail. People have given reports of fear and anguish towards sun down when the battle took place. Also children are sometimes seen around Captain Smith's house.

Observations, Activity, and Evidence:

Lexington Battle Green: No photographic evidence or EVP

The Old Burial Ground: No photographic evidence
Feelings of dense air, hair standing up and goose-bumps

Battle Road: Battle Road near bloody angle bend at dusk. We didn't go far due to National Park Rangers asking us to leave as we did not have a permit to be there (park closes at dusk).

One possible photograph taken of an object(opaque) blocking view up the path, possibly a minuteman on horseback/Soldier on horseback
Few possible EVPs are captured
Feelings of stomach pain, anxiety passing by graves of British soldiers buried along the path
One personal experience happened to a field investigator, had a left hand reach out from the left as if to brush a bug away from her face, upon turning around, there was no one there. All other investigators were to the right down the path.

Conclusion:
This is an historic place in American history, no doubt to any investigator that there is great possibility of paranormal activity of some kind going on here.
