In Lake County, the New Connecticut Chapter has taken the lead nation-wide to place a patriot marker in local cemeteries to honor all those who participated in the American Revolution. Once again, Ohio’s smallest county with the most history will be at the forefront of this moment. Eighty-six patriots interred here have been selected to receive this recognition. These are names familiar throughout Lake County. On Tuesday, July 4, 2023, in Painesville’s Veterans Park, the 86 names were selected and etched into bricks surrounding a historic marker to become a fitting memorial. The list below contains the names of eighty-six Revolutionary War veterans who are known to have been buried in Lake County.
