What three men rode in the night to warn the minutemen that the British were coming?

Paul Revere, William Dawes, and Dr. Samuel Prescott.

The real midnight rider wasn't Paul Revere it was actually 25-year-old mail carrier named Israel Bissel. He rode some 400 miles in 5 days. He alerted local militias that a British Force was marching on Lexington & Concord.

Another rider was a 16-year-old girl named Sibyl Ludington, who rode more than 40 miles in 6 hours and called out any army of patriots to halt a British advance at Danbury, Connecticut. Paul Revere's mission was to warn rebel leader Samuel Adams and John Hancock that British soldiers were on the way to arrest them. Paul Revere never saw the signal and he wasn; t the only midnight rider.
