A special tribute to the 9th Connecticut Regiment
Volunteers
On
November 6, 2011 our annual wreath-laying ceremony took place at
Bayview Park,
City Point, New Haven, where many gathered to pay tribute to the heros
of the 9th. Regiment Conn. Volunteers. A monument in their honor has
stood there for many years. Here are some photos taken at that event.
The Vicksburg Monument Project
Eight years of outright dedication was made by
those
who were involved in the above named project. To name a few, Bob
Larkin, a Cheshire, Ct. resident, who thought that the Connecticut 9th
Volunteer's Regiment, otherwise known as 'The Irish Regiment', should
be recognized for their contribution on the battle front. So he started
to make numerous calls to various sources for donations to fund the
project not realizing that it would take upwards of $60,000 to
complete. A massive undertaking but Bob was determined and did not give
up. He contacted Stacy Mathieu of Southington, Ct. to display her
etching expertise on the black granite slab which weighed over 5,000
pounds. Stacy's beautiful work was aided by Kerry Sheldon of Durham,
Ct. who provided the composite design for the project. Last but not
least, Jim Sheehan of Wallingford, Ct. made a carving of the finished
monument to be used as a mockup during the fund-raising process. Bob
wants to thank all those who contributed to this memorial and brought
it to fruition.
