NHSAR will be dedicating granite markers for 5 Patriots who participated in the raid on historic December 1774 Raid on Fort William and Mary.

This solemn ceremony will recognize the service and sacrifice of Patriots,

Richard Champney (1735 – 1810)

Edward Hart (1744 – 1825)

George Gains (1736 – 1809)

Supply Clapp (1742 – 1811)

whose bold actions helped lay the foundation for American independence. We will also be placing wreaths at the grave sites of John Langon and Wiliam Whipple.

We will assemble near the Langdon Tomb for the welcome, pledge of allegiance and invocation. We will then march as a group to each grave site to read a short bio and unveil the granite marker. After the last grave site we will march to an open area of the cemetery and fire a musket salute to honor all patriots buried at the cemetery.
