The public is invited to attend.
Through the generosity of Dave and David Moore of Strang Funeral Home in Antioch and Zoia Monument Company in Woodstock, the restored monument of Antioch's oldest-known war veteran, Capt. Leverett H. Barnes (1787-1872), a War of 1812 veteran, will be dedicated.
The broken, overgrown and forgotten stone now appears as it did on the day it was placed, 149 years ago.
I have not been able to find any further information on him.
