Millstone used as part of Memorial presented by Geo, P. Rairson

There are two DAR plaques on this millstone. One for the stone itself, on the back, and one for the Revolutionary Soldiers on the front.
Since it is one piece and one site, I feel it should be one waymark


This memorial is mounted on a old millstone, and located in the front yard of this old church. The cemetery in the rear of the church hold many of the honored listed here.
