Photos by permission: George Geoffrey Baggett, Kentucky Society SAR. Patriot is buried in unknown/lost grave in Christian County, Kentucky
His service is memorialized on a granite monolith in the Kentucky Veterans Cemetery West placed by John Manire Chapter, KYSSAR, in 2012
his monument contains the names of all Rev War Patriots who died in Christian County. It serves as the de-facto memorial stone for all of the Patriots buried whereabouts unknown. Each year, in April, the KY Society hosts a Central District "Patriot's Day" event to honor each of the Patriots listed on the monolith. Due to the absence of an actual grave for many of the men named, the monolith serves as a "mass marker" and participants are authorized to count five of the Patriots buried in unknown locations toward the Patriot Grave Marking Medal

Directions to Cemetery / Gravesite:
Send a biographical sketch of your patriot!
Patriot biographies must be the original work of the author, and work submitted must not belong to another person or group, in observance with copyright law. Patriot biographies are to be written in complete sentences, follow the established rules of grammar, syntax and punctuation, be free of typographical errors, and follow a narrative format. The narrative should unfold in a logical manner (e.g. the narrative does not jump from time period to time period) or have repeated digressions, or tell the history of the patriot's line from the patriot ancestor to the author. The thinking here is that this is a patriot biography, not a lineage report or a kinship determination project or other report published in a genealogy journal. The biography should discuss the qualifying service (military, patriotic, civil) of the patriot ancestor, where the service was rendered, whether this was a specific state or Continental service, as well as significant events (as determined by the author) of the patriot's life. This is the entire purpose of a patriot's biography.
