Chapter Meeting, Saturday, February 25, 2023

The winter quarter meeting will be held at the Ohio County Public Library’s auditorium at 10:30 am on Saturday, February 25.

Our guest speaker Jeanne Finstein will present a program on efforts to restore and maintain Ohio County cemeteries that no longer have active boards/associations, or are located on private property.

In its first initiative the orphaned cemeteries group, led by Peggy Niebergall and staffed by Americorps volunteer Sharon David, held a restoration workshop for volunteers in the spring of 2022 at Stone Church Cemetery. In the fall a second volunteer work session was held at the cemetery on the same day that our chapter dedicated the new sign listing the 18 patriots interred there.

A charitable foundation is being organized to raise funds to expand repair and upkeep in the many orphaned cemeteries in Ohio County.

As always, spouses, potential members and guests are welcome.

Questions? Please call chapter president Jay Frey (304) 312-1787.
