2021 Boggs (Young Farm) Cemetery Clean-Up

A descendant from The State of Arizona of Revolutionary War patriot John Boggs Sr. wishes to have the Camp Charlotte Chapter of the OHSSAR conduct a grave marking ceremony of the behalf of his ancestor and other patriots buried at the cemetery. The cemetery has been clearly neglected for a number years and our chapter will be dedicated to returning it to a state that it should be in. We are currently working with a Scout from a Troop in Chillicothe who is currently working on conducting this cleanup as an Eagle Scout Project.
