About This Card:
Built over the site of his original grave exists a small blockhouse, a remnant reconstructed in 1880 of an earlier fort & a memorial to General Wayne.
There is a story about the burial of Major General "Mad Anthony" Wayne, Revolutionary War hero and Commander-in-Chief of the American Army, being buried in two separate locations nearly 400 miles apart. It is, truly strange, but true. The Wayne Blockhouse is the original location after his death in 1796, and the place where his flesh was buried after his remains were dismembered and the flesh boiled off of his bones in 1809. The rest of General "Mad" Anthony Wayne was buried at St. David's Church, in Radnor, Pennsylvania, just outside of Philadelphia.
Please review the photographs carefully to determine card conditions. Card conditions are very subjective.
Thank you,
