Lafayette Chapter

Patriot Flags and Flowers

Please consider joining the Lafayette Chapter – Sons of the American Revolution on Sunday June 29, 2025, for our Sixth Annual Patriot Flags and Flowers Walk at Lexington Cemetery. We will have a short memorial service, musket salute, and then walk to the graves of 37 Revolutionary War Patriots and their Wives. At each grave site we will briefly stop to hear a little information about the Patriot and his family. We will place an American Flag on the Patriot’s Grave and Flowers on the Grave of his Wife/Wives.

245th Anniversary of Ruddles Station Massacre

Please join the Lafayette Chapter and the KYSSAR Eastern Brigade Color Guard as we honor the memory of the hundreds of Patriots, Pioneers, and family members that were massacred at Ruddle’s Station in June of 1780.

At 10:00 am the SAR Color Guard will post the Colors and fire a Flintlock salute. At 11:00 am we will move to the Lair Family Crypt to Sound Taps and perform Mourn on Arms in memory of some of the slaughtered that had their remains moved to this crypt in the cliff overlooking the Licking River.
