The Plymouth Historical Society will host a “Tour and Restore” event at the historic St. Matthew’s cemetery in East Plymouth.  

The graveyard dates to 1796 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The village of East Plymouth was home to Tories during the Revolutionary War. The tour will present a fascinating perspective on the War from the Tory point of view, not often found in our history books. Participants should meet at the cemetery on East Plymouth Road (near the intersection of Marsh Road) at 1pm for the tour. The tour lasts one half hour. Bring shovels if you want to help reset gravestones after the tour.

The “Tour and Restore” event is free but registration is required by emailing plymouth.historical@yahoo.com or calling 860-921-6118. Go to www.plymouthhistoricalsociety.org
