To celebrate its 100th anniversary, the Patrick Henry Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) restored the monument that was erected by the Patrick Henry DAR in 1922. The monument is located on the site of Patrick Henry’s Leatherwood home where he lived with his family from 1779 to 1784. Two of Henry’s children were born at the Leatherwood site. Trent Memorials restored the monument.
Members from Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) chapters Colonel Abram Penn, Joseph Martin, Old Carolina Road, Colonel William Preston, Peaks of Otter, Fort Lewis, and Red Rock joined the Patrick Henry chapter for the commemoration of the monument.
Members of the DAR pose alongside the monument in 1922, when it was originally placed.
