Event Details
DAR and SAR Chapters in Washtenaw County, MI will be conducting a Patriot Marker ceremony honoring Timothy Crittenden. Crittenden was born in Guilford, CT. During the Revolutionary War, he served as an Orderly Sergeant under Captain Oliver Belden in the regiment of Colonel David Rossiter of Berkshire County, Massachusetts militia. He also served as a Musician under Captain Simon Smith and Major Cady. This event is driven by the American 250 recognizing the men and women who secured our nation's independence. Patriot Timothy Crittenden will join others in Washenaw County who have had a plaque installed to recognize their sacrifice. The dedication has a meaningful blend of local and state participation. Descendants are welcome and encouraged to attend. If you can't attend and are a descendant please feel free to share your connection to this soldier.
