DID YOU KNOW: Monument Dedication

DID YOU KNOW that the Civil War Monument was dedicated May 30, 1882.  Oakes A. Ames, Joseph Barlow, Dr. George B. Cogswell, Lincoln S. Drake, and George A  Lackey were chosen at the March 1880 Town Meeting to determine how to commemorate the sacrifices made by Easton residents during the Civil War.  The dedication of the five-thousand dollar monument with the names of the forty- seven men who had sacrificed their lives was witnessed by about two thousand people.
