In 2026, the United States will be celebrating the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Indpendence.

In commemoration, the Cambria Memory Project will be researching and recording the history of those who served in the American Revolution and which lived in the region that in 1804 became Cambria County.

Disclaimer: That names that were used in this research were those gathered from the
following sources: brass plaque on the memorial in Veterans Park, Ebensburg, several local cemeteries and graves, and veteran records maintained at the Cambria County Courthouse. Supporting information was gathered through searchs on Ancestry.com. FamilySearch.org, MyHeritage.com, and the Daughters of the American Revolution. After examination of information gathered from all these sources, some discrepancies may be noted in the biographies.
