This bizarre monument may be mistaken for just another gravestone in the middle of this fansinating cemetery, but closer examination reveals that it is a memorial to those who served in the Pennsylvania Militia in the Revolutionary War. More specifically it is a memorial to the McClure family of veterans. Five of the ten veterans of the American Revolutionary War who are buried in this cemetery are listed on this memorial:
John McClure
William McClure
George McClure
Daniel McClure
James Scott
All of the specific graves are marked with modern and origional markers in most cases.
