CT Sons of the American Revolution host special July 4th

(NECN/WTNH) - The Connecticut Sons of the American Revolution hosted a special July 4th ceremony honoring those who fought and died in the Revolutionary War at the historic Grove Street cemetery in New Haven. Two Connecticut men were singled out. Roger Sherman was the only man to sign the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation and the US Constitution. General David Humphrey was a Yale graduate who advised President George Washington. The event also allows people to interact with history. This ceremony is in its 59th consecutive year.
