A History Speaks presentation. An Upper Arlington America-250 celebration!
Join us to honor the one Revolutionary War veteran buried in Upper Arlington, OH - Elijah Legg. Elijah moved his family to this area around the mid-1810s / early 1820s making his family one of our original pioneers. Wellington students will present their research into Mr. Legg, his family, his neighbors - the Walcutts, and the Walcutt-Legg cemetery located adjacent to the Wellington School's grounds.
The City of UA has partnered with the Upper Arlington Historical Society to dedicate a new historical marker at the cemetery's site; the dedication ceremony will be held at the event.
Free to attend. No registration required.
Elijah Legg’s headstone reads: “Elijah Legg. Died Sept 24, 1852. In the 87th year of (life.)”
