American Revolution Marker Unveiled

ZANESVILLE, Ohio – A new historical marker made its debut in downtown Zanesville this morning.

The Muskingum County chapter of the Daughter’s of the American Revolution unveiled a Revolutionary War marker in front of the courthouse. They were joined by local and state dignitaries. The marker serves to honor not only those who fought in the revolution, but those who supported it as well. The DAR was founded in 1890 to celebrate America’s revolution and promote historic preservation, education and patriotism. even though Ohio wasn’t one of the original 13 Colonies, the marker recognizes the important role the Ohio Frontier played during the America’s revolution.
