2026 Reber Hill Grave marking event for Col. Thomas Gibson

30 May the Camp Charlotte Chapter of the SAR and the Pickaway Plains chapter had the honor to present the grave marking event to Col. Thomas Gibson the first Ohio State auditor. Weather for this event was prefect bright sky with a very gentle breeze to keep the flags from being still. The event was well attended with the OHSSAR President and other members of various other SAR and DAR chapters in the audience. Information on Thomas Gibson has been a long focus of Camp Charlotte historian with many twists and turns along the way. Thanks to all who were able to take photos of the event.

2026 Marietta Memorial Service honoring Revolutionary war Patriots

May 21st members of the Camp Charlotte chapter of the SAR attended Memorial services in Marietta Ohio honoring all the revolutionary soldiers buried in the Mound Cemetery presented by the Marietta SAR & DAR chapters. There were many other SAR and DAR in attendance though the weather was a little on the wet and cool side. Services were held because of rain inside St. Paul’s church across the road from the cemetery itself.

While attending his first Memorial grave marking event in Marietta newly inducted Camp Charlotte member Carl Fuller
got to stand next to the head stone of his 6th Great Great Grandfather Lt Col William Stacy Sr buried at the
Mound Cemetery located in the city of Marietta.
