1. Revolutionary War Patriots Marker, Side One
The Revolutionary War (1775-1783) was our nation's fight for independence from Great Britain to establish a new country with a government based on equality, justice, and humanity. Patriots from all corners of what would become the State of Vermont left their families and homes to take up arms for the right to govern themselves. This marker honors and remembers the known and unknown Revolutionary War Patriots who were willing to sacrifice their lives and fortunes in support of independence. Documentation has recorded many Patriots are buried in Chittenden County, including Gov. Thomas Chittenden and militia leader Ethan Allen. Research continues to record every Patriot.
The Green Mountain Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution was organized in April 1892 in Burlington. This list of Patriots, living during the Revolutionary War in what would become Vermont, are ancestors of Green Mountain Chapter Daughters in 2022.
