Peter Francisco, lahir Pedro Francisco (7 Juli 1760 – 16 Januari 1831), dikenal sebagai "India", "Raksasa Revolusi" dan, kadang-kadang, "Virginia Hercules", adalah seorang pahlawan kelahiran Portugis yang turut andil sebagai tentara di Perang Revolusi Amerika.[1]

  1. ^ Other versions hold that Francisco was taken to Ireland; as a youth, he became indentured to a sea captain, and traveled with him to City Point. Found abandoned, he was put in the poorhouse until taken in by Judge Winston. This version does not support the generally accepted dates given for Francisco's birth and transport; it is considered legend.
