Revolutionary War veteran honored by Washington SAR
Members of the George Washington Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution in Washington and guests, including descendants of Henry Lenox Shepherd, gathered May 23 to dedicate a new tombstone honoring the Revolutionary War veteran. Shepherd was buried in an unmarked grave on the farm he settled in East Huntingdon Township. His stone was erected in a family plot of graves beside Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church, which was founded by his family.
