ONGOING
PROJECTS
The Revolutionary War gravestones projects.
- Longwood Revolutionary War Veterans are currently being identified and
their burial locations recorded. In many cases the tombstones are either
missing or are illegible. The Longwood students will be filing
applications for government replacement stones.

Memorial was dedicated on Memorial Day, 2007. It is only the beginning
with other projects to follow.
