Summary
In Jericho, Vermont, a heartfelt ceremony honored eleven Revolutionary War veterans buried in their local cemetery, ahead of the 250th anniversary of American independence. Descendants gathered to share stories, read about their ancestors, and place special patriot markers on each grave — bringing history to life. Sue Richardson, vice president of the Jericho Historical Society, honored her four-times-great-grandfather Roger Stevens, who served at Valley Forge alongside George Washington. With help from the Green Mountain Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, the community uncovered that while only a few of these veterans were born in Vermont, all ended up calling Jericho home — a powerful reminder that pivotal moments in history were shaped by real people, families, and small towns like this one.
