←Back to Lafayette 200th Anniversary Celebration
The Worthington Historical Society (WHS) has teamed with the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) to identify the graves of Worthington citizens affected by the Revolutionary War. These burial sites include those who fought and those left behind. DAR and WHS members have been diligently searching period records to identify as many potential Revolutionary War Era residents and their gravesites as possible. We conducted aerial mapping of each of the town’s six main cemeteries to locate headstones. Field verification of grave sites continues. As part of our celebration of Lafayette’s visit, we are inviting the public to join us for a cemetery walk to see firsthand the results of this exciting project.
