On Saturday, September 23, 2017 the Old Van Cortlandtville Cemetery Association held a Plaque Dedication to unveil a new marker for the John Paulding gravesite. I was honored to be a part of the ceremony and also to secure the funds needed to create the plaque. Knowing of my interest and involvement in promoting history and being a Revolutionary War Reenactor for over 40 years, members of the association approached me hoping I would help in the creation of the plaque. I was glad to have the opportunity to have a hand in the initiative to create the plaque and was able to obtain the funding required to have the plaque created and installed.
The act of John Paulding and his comrades Isaac Van Wart and David Williams capturing British spy Major John Andre was a turning point in our nation’s history. In recent years, the story has a renewed interest due the background setting of West Point, George Washington, Benedict Arnold and especially the new details regarding the spy ring involved in the war. A number of books and even a television series has appeared in just the last few years giving renewed interest in the story.
John Paulding, the lead figure in the capture of Andre, is buried in the Old Van Cortlandt Cemetery just yards from the historic Revolutionary War Era Old St. Peter’s Church. He died in 1818 at the age of 60 and was honored with a prominent site and stone/obelisk structure. Over time, the words engraved into the marble monument have faded and it is just a matter of time until they are lost forever. The new plague that was installed replicates the engraved words exactly so as to preserve them for generations to come.

Hebertocaris wideneri Stumm & Chilman, 1969 - fossil phyllocarid teeth from the Devonian of Ohio, USA. (Dave Mielke collection; temporary public display, Ohio Geological Survey, Columbus, Ohio, USA)
Phyllocarids are bivalved crustacean arthropods - basically a shrimp in a clam shell-type structure.
Classification: Animalia, Arthropoda, Crustacea, Malacostracan, Phyllocarida, Archaeostraca, Rhinocarididae
Stratigraphy: Silica Formation (also known as the Silica Shale), Givetian Stage, upper Middle Devonian
Locality: quarry northwest of the town of Paulding, northern Paulding County, northwestern Ohio, USA (41° 10' 52.55" North latitude, 84° 37' 19.32" West longitude)
View South west in likely early 1938 to what appears to be a closed and boarded up NYW&B Morris Park Station headhouse facing what appears to be Paulding Avenue at its front.
Stylolite in limestone in the Devonian of Ohio, USA. (cross-section view)
The structure seen here is a stylolite, a pressure dissolution feature that frequently has the appearance of a hospital EKG reading. These occur in many limestones, dolostones, and some marbles, especially in or near orogenic belts. The host rock here is limestone, a biogenic sedimentary rock composed of calcite (CaCO3 - calcium carbonate). Most limestones formed in ancient, warm, shallow ocean environments.
Stratigraphy: loose piece, probably derived from the Dundee Limestone, Middle Devonian

Pickett's Mill Battlefield Historic Site is located in Paulding County, Georgia. The site is among the most well-preserved Civil War battlefields in the nation. It remains in much the same condition as when Confederate and Union troops clashed there over a hundred years ago.
On May 27, 1864, after an unsuccessful attempt at advance at New Hope Church two days prior, General Sherman ordered troops east. He wanted them to outflank Confederate forces in order to continue the Federal march toward Atlanta. After five hours of marching through dense woods, Federal troops came upon Confederate forces who were deeply entrenched at Pickett's Mill. The fighting was some of the fiercest of the Atlanta Campaign. The water in the creeks surrounding Pickett's Mill was said to have run red with blood. Utilizing the natural terrain of the ravine, as well as their excellent positioning to their advantage, the Confederates were able to fight off the Union troops and force them into retreat. General Patrick Cleburne, who was in command of the Confederate forces, lost only 700 men. General Oliver Howard, leading the Federal troops, suffered 1,600 casualties.
Despite this Confederate victory, Sherman's march on Atlanta was only delayed by a few days. He continued on to the city, where he eventually left it in ruins.

Petroleum in a Hexagonaria fossil coral in the Devonian of Ohio, USA.
Corals are essentially sea anemones (polyps) that make a skeleton, which is usually mineralized. Most corals are colonial, but some are solitary. This particular fossil is Hexagonaria, a colonial rugose coral having many hexagonally-shaped corallites, as seen in plan view - this is a cross-section view.
The black areas are petroleum. Hydrocarbons have migrated into fractures and other porous areas of the coral. This specimen is in a quarry in northwestern Ohio, which had a significant petroleum system that was heavily exploited in the late 1800s. Ohio used to be the # 1 petroleum exporter in the world!

Euryzone arata (Hall, 1862) - fossil snail in limestone in the Devonian of Ohio, USA
The gastropods (snails & slugs) are a group of molluscs that occupy marine, freshwater, and terrestrial environments. Most have a calcareous external shell (the snails). Some lack a shell completely, or have reduced internal shells (the slugs & sea slugs & pteropods). Most members of the Gastropoda are marine. Most marine snails are herbivores (algae grazers) or predators/carnivores.

Limestones and dolostones in the Devonian of Ohio, USA.
This is an active quarry in far-northwestern Ohio. We were forbidden from closely approaching the walls. Large, loose blocks of rock were piled on the quarry floor for close examination and mineral collecting.
Many of the gray-colored rocks are from the the Dundee Limestone, a Middle Devonian unit equivalent to the upper Columbus Limestone and Delaware Limestone elsewhere in Ohio. At this site, the Dundee is principally light gray to gray-brown micrite and dismicrite. These lithologies are sometimes referred to as lithographic limestone and sublithographic limestone. Stylolites are present, as are numerous patches of coarsely-crystalline calcite.
The brownish-colored rocks are from the Lucas Dolomite of the upper Detroit River Group. The Lucas appears to consist of both dolostone and limestone. Finely-laminated, brown dolostone is a common lithology in this unit. Lack of stratigraphic control in the loose quarry blocks makes specific lithologic assessments difficult. Stylolites are also present in the Lucas.
Stratigraphy: Dundee Limestone & Lucas Dolomite, Middle Devonian
Locality: Auglaize Quarry (= Shelly Company, Stoneco's Auglaize Facility), southeast of the town of Junction, northeastern Paulding County, northwestern Ohio, USA (41° 10' 27.83" North latitude, 84° 25' 19.75" West longitude)
American hero John Paulding died in 1818 at the age of 60. He was one of the three who captured British spy John André and uncovered the traitor Benedict Arnold and his plot to help West Point fall and George Washington be captured. Paulding is buried locally in the Old VanCortlandtville Cemetery off of Oregon Road and Locust Avenue in the Town of Cortlandt NY.
Last year the VanCortlandtville Historical Society and Old Cemetery Association held a commemoration of the 1780 capture by Paulding and unveiling of a new plaque containing the inscription on Paulding’s monument that has become faded and hard to read. On Sunday, September 23, 2018, they held another commemoration of the 200th Anniversary of Paulding’s death and to show the newly cleaned monument. Prior to the ceremony at the cemetery, there was an outstanding play, “Captor in Question,” performed by actors/educators Sean Grady and Gary Petagine, portraying Pauling and former Revolutionary War Intelligence Officer/Congressman Benjamin Tallmadge.
It was an honor to participate once again in honoring Paulding and helping to preserve his memory and American history.

Bethanyphyllum robustum (Hall, 1876) - fossil coral from the Devonian of Ohio, USA. (Dave Mielke collection; temporary public display, Ohio Geological Survey, Columbus, Ohio, USA)
This is a transverse cross-section through a rugose coral, commonly known as a "horn coral". Rugosans are an extinct group - they only occur in Paleozoic rocks. The soft parts were sea anemone-like creatures called polyps. The polyps made calcareous hard-part skeletons. Most rugosans were solitary, but some were colonial. This specimen is a solitary rugose coral - it had a solid, tapering skeleton of calcite.
