Signers grave recognition

Since 2004, the Society has implemented a project to honor the Signers of the Declaration by placing a plaque at the grave of each Signer to honor their memory and their great deed of signing the Declaration of Independence. The plaques are placed when permission is granted from the cemeteries involved. A bronze plaque engraved with the Signers name is permanently install at the grave site.

If you would like to donate to this project, make a check payable to DSDI, Inc and send it off to:
