Event Type Historical Dedication Description This will be the dedication of a new plaque which re-inscribes and clarifies the worn text on the existing John Paulding Monument located in the Old Van Cortlandtville Cemetery in the Town of Cortlandt Manor. The monument was erected by the City of New York in 1827 in recognition of area resident and patriot, John Paulding, who along with Issac Van Wart and David Williams, apprehended British spy, John Andre. The latter colluded with Benedict Arnold in their failed attempt to surrender West Point to the then-enemy in New York City.
