SUMMARY:Researching and carving replicas of Revolutionary War veteran’s headstones.
DESCRIPTION:The Descendants of The Founders of Ancient Windsor Fall 2025 meeting will be held on Saturday\, September 27\, 2025\, in person and via Zoom. As part of our contribution to Windsor’s celebration of the nation’s Semiquincentennial\, guest speaker will be DFAW Vice President\, Randall Nelson\, who will present a talk on the process of researching and then carving replicas of several Revolutionary War veteran’s headstones. The program will be recorded and made available to those who have registered to attend either in person or via Zoom. \nRandall Nelson has been a working artist for thirty years\, teaching art courses while maintaining his own art practice and managing a sculptural restoration business specializing in the preservation of building facades\, monuments\, and statuary. He has extensive experience in the different fields of sculptural production\, including wood and stone carving\, mold making\, casting\, and metal working. \nHe has done repairs on many monuments and building facades\, including the brownstone Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch in Bushnell Park\, Hartford\, CT\, the P. T. Barnum Museum in Bridgeport\, CT\, and the famed McClellan Arched Gateway in Arlington National Cemetery. Multiple projects in Savannah\, GA; New York City; Sarasota; and Key West\, FL have kept him busy and often away from home. Recently\, he has focused his talents more locally\, working in several of the State’s oldest cemeteries\, doing repairs on damaged stones and carving replicas of badly deteriorated colonial era gravestones. \nRefreshments will precede the event at 12:30. To register online please visit dfaw.org. \n
