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.
Limestones and dolostones in the Devonian of Ohio, USA.
This is the active wall at a functioning 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.
The gray-colored rocks in the top third of the wall are 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 in the middle and lower walls are the Lucas Dolomite of the upper Detroit River Group. The Lucas appears to consist of 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 over 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)
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
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)

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.

Paulding, Mississippi
It is estimated that the jail was constructed between 1895-1900, based on newspaper articles as the county records were lost in a courthouse fire in 1932. The Pauly Jail Building & Manufacturing Co. of St Louis built it. These remains sit behind the Paulding PO. It was badly deteriorated when it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994 and has since basically fallen in on itself. This old jail could pretty much stand as the symbol for the "town" of Paulding. If you've ever been there you know what I mean.
This bland, flagging strip mall was the site of the John I. Paulding Company in New Bedford, up until 1986 or so. I worked summers at Paulding after high school, and was offered a job there when I graduated college in 1980. I turned it down.
Between the point I took this shot and the Papa Ginos, there was a small office building. I only went in there a few times, but I did help re-roof it (with spray tar) one supremely hot summer day.
Where the other stores are (across the drive) was a big sprawling factory, with a couple of machine shops, a welding shop, a huge industrial pottery, a room full of screw machines, a room for electroplating, injection molding machines for plastic, and a big assembly floor.
Part of it dated back to colonial times. A machine shop on the first floor and the engineering lab on the second floor shared a part of the facility made from fieldstones. It had a tower with rifle slots instead of windows that the company used for storage, since the need to protect the stagecoach horses while they rested en route to Boston was no longer necessary by then.
Production was moved away from the unionized factory in New Bedford, and I think ultimately the whole company failed. I don't think there is anything with the Paulding name made anywhere now on the market.
The Fieldstone Marketplace itself is looking pretty tired, now, with lots of empty stores.

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)
This structure, typical of Ohio's fantastic courthouses, was erected in 1886-88 by contractor Rudolph Ehrhart with the designs of the architectural firm of E. O. Fallis and Company.
It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
Ohio State Route 111 is a lovely rural byway that connects the Indiana-Ohio state line with the town of Defiance. It passes through portions of Paulding and Defiance counties.
This is the Paulding Quarry in far-northwestern Ohio. The quarry opened in 1949 and the rocks are used to make cement on-site. The target unit is the Middle Devonian Dundee Limestone. Overlying the Dundee is the Silica Formation, also Middle Devonian. The Silica is richly fossiliferous and consists of interbedded limestone and shale.

The lower photo probably depicts the 1882 structure. It's amazing to me that, even in the 1880s, such crude buildings were being erected in the state. Due to its location in the midst of the Great Black Swamp, Paulding County was one of Ohio's last counties settled.

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.
Classification: Animalia, Mollusca, Gastropoda, Pleurotomariida, Gosseletinidae
