Places this Memorial to Honor the Defenders of our County
In 1931, the Mahoning Chapter located and brought rocks from the battlefields of Lexington and Concord to place around a memorial rock marking the Road of Remembrance—a memorial highway honoring World War I servicemen. In addition, beneath the large central rock lies a bottle of soil from the Meuse-Argonne American Cemetery in France, the largest American military cemetery in Europe.
Funded By:
If needed, maintenance of the memorial area is funded through voluntary donations from Mahoning Chapter members. The surrounding grounds are maintained by the historic Forest Glen Estates Homeowners Association.
