      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.
