The unveiling will be held at 10:00 AM at Evergreen Cemetery (1819 Main Street, Keeseville) to honor two American Revolutionary War veterans: Dr. Reuben Jones (1747–1833) and Private Ezra Pond (1758–1843). Both men served from Massachusetts before settling in Keeseville, and were buried in Evergreen Cemetery. The ceremony will include remarks from local officials and representatives of the Evergreen Cemetery Association. The Patriotic Burial Marker has been awarded in collaboration with the Empire State Society Sons of the American Revolution.
The unveiling will take place at 41 Lake Street, Port Kent, NY, honoring Peter Comstock (1796–1874). Comstock, a veteran of the War of 1812, built the original Cumberland Head lighthouse and contributed to the region’s development through his lumber and steamboat businesses. Garth Houde, President of the Anderson Falls Heritage Society, will speak about Comstock’s life and business activities. The Anderson Falls Heritage Society warmly invites the public to attend.
