*Annual Jefferson Township Veterans Honor Roll Memorial31 May
2021Langeloth, PA*


The Patriot Guard Riders have been invited to stand in silent honor as we
remember those who have served at the site of the Jefferson Township
Veterans  Honor Roll Memorial.

The Veterans Honor Roll was originally in front of the former Eldersville
Grade School and dedicated in the middle of World War II. The names of the
veterans who served ranges from 1943 until the end of World War II were not
on the  Veterans Honor Roll.

The original was wood and surrounded by a sandstone wall and contained 137
names of Jefferson Township veterans, but the wood section of the Veterans
Honor Roll was deteriorating. A decision was made by the board to erect a
new Veterans Honor Roll on its property and the contract to erect a new
Veterans Honor Roll was signed on the 4th of April 2005.

After researching, over 1100 names of veterans who had lived in Jefferson
Township will then be engraved in the granite of the new monument. On the
17th of June 2006, the Jefferson Township Veterans Honor Roll was dedicated.

Rock of Ages in Wintersville, Ohio designed and erected a second monument
and a sketch of the original monument was engraved in the granite of this
new monument and was dedicated on Memorial Day, Monday, the 26th of May
2008.

The Jefferson Township Historical Society holds ceremonies at the Veterans
Honor Roll site on Memorial Day, 9/11 and Veterans’ Day.

All ages are welcome to honor.
