Patriot Ancestor Certificate, Editable Revolutionary War Honor Print, Roll of Patriots

HONOR YOUR REVOLUTIONARY WAR PATRIOT WITH A CERTIFICATE WORTH FRAMING.

Type your patriot ancestor's name, service and life dates into the included Honor Maker and it lays out an elegant 18th-century style certificate: a laurel wreath around a ring of thirteen stars, the name in flowing script, your service lines, an optional tribute, two signature lines and a "1776" seal. Leave any line empty and the page re-centers itself. Print it at home on cardstock or parchment paper, or send the PDF to a copy shop.

MORE THAN ONE PATRIOT?
The Roll of Patriots lists up to 12 patriot ancestors on one page: name, service, place and years for each.

HOW THIS WAS MADE
Designed by Front Porch Puzzle Press. The certificate designs, ornaments, seal and the Honor Maker were built with custom code that I wrote with help from an AI coding assistant. No AI image generator was used. The names in the photos belong to made-up example patriots.
