The Boston Massacre occurred on March 5, 1770 and author Ann Rinaldi wrote the Book entitled The Fifth of March in 1993.
Other events from March 5th are:
1836: Samuel Colt released the first Colt revolver.
1868: Impeachment proceedings began against President Andrew Johnson.
1933: The Nazis won parliamentary elections, giving control of the country to Adolf Hitler.
1946: Winston Churchill used the term 'Iron Curtain' in a speech
March 5th seems to be an ominous date in history.
Any good things you can think of that happened on March 5th in history?

I just read these to my 10 yr old before school. He has state testing this week and every bit of info helps :). (and he did learn about Boston Massacre this year).
It's on a Friday this year? That's good, right?
I got nothing. Maybe my new bowling ball will do something of historical importance tonight though...
Wow. Fascinating. I hope today isn't so ominous!
It's my brothers birthday :D
Oof! Let's see...
Montana & Nevada become 1st states to enact old age pension laws in 1923.

Zachary Taylor was sworn is at pres in 1849
And the first Mother-in-law's day was celebrated in Amarillo TX.
Love that y'all tried to keep a positive perspective - I kept waiting for something to happen and I guess it kinda did. My daughter had to have surgery and I spent about 9 hours at the hospital. :(
