What happened to Andrew Jackson when he was eight years old?

I suspect your teacher meant 13 or 14, not eight.

Jackson was born in 1767. Eight years later was 1775. What happened on July 4, 1775?

Answered by Brit
14 year old Andrew Jackson and his older brother Robert were captured by British soldiers in the Battle of Hanging Rock.
Answered by Brit
Though the Fourth of July is almost iconic to Americans, some claim the date itself is somewhat arbitrary. New Englanders had been fighting Britain since April 1775.

Ooops -- I was off by a year. Of course, the Revolutionary War started when Jackson was 8.
