For people who confuse modern-day generations with one another — and for those who wonder which factors separated the generations of yesteryear — I’ve created Jigsaw Gens.” This series began when I decided to illustrate the generation gaps that have persisted throughout American culture from the 1880s up through the present day.

Those generations can be divided up, as follows…

Hemingrebels | GI-Gens | Traditionalists | Baby Boomers

GenXers | Millennials | Zoomers | Alphas

Toward the end of 2023, I began exploring age cohorts that can be identified when looking back before the Nineteenth Century. Those eight generations have included:

Missionaries | Stowegressives | Golden Renegades | Redeemers

Transcendentals | Unimpressionists | Madisonians | Goodpublicans

So who came before the Goodpublicans?

They would be the most active Revolutionary-era generation, whom I have christened as the “Liberty Lords.”
