Patriots of Allegany County: A Living History, Presented by the DAR

Discover the local faces of the American Revolution.

Join us for an engaging presentation by members of the local Catherine Schuyler Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution as they unveil years of research into the lives of over 100 early Allegany County settlers who served as Patriots.

This session goes far beyond names and dates. You’ll hear the stories of those who founded our nation and went on to shape our local landscape for generations. We will also share an exciting look at the upcoming Angelica Park Circle Monument and its accompanying time capsule—a lasting tribute to our county’s revolutionary roots.
