It was perfect juxtaposition of circumstances - a Revolutionary War hero who fought at Kings Mountain, the proximity of the National Military Park where Col. Frederick Hambright fought so bravely, the presence of President General Ed Butler who is a documented descendant of Col. Hambright, a Presbyterian cemetery that preserved the grave sites of many Revolutionary War soldiers, and a hosting SAR Chapter that organized a truly impressive SAR grave marking ceremony. Col. Frederick Hambright fought at Kings Mountain with blood in his boots as the result of a wound, but he refused to quit the battleground. This tenacity and singleness of purpose was celebrated in a Memorial ceremony that included members of the SAR, DAR, CAR and a number of other Patriotic organizations, including the Hambright Family Association. See here the people, the place, and the ceremonial splendor that marked the honoring of a man who has been called "A Terror to the Tories, a True Patriot."
