Mary Brizard Todd worked to secure the marker before she died and the 30' X 30' plot she got Noah Falk to donate the spot on the exact site of the old camp. The tablet was unveiled by Dorothy Todd, granddaughter of Mrs. Todd. Heenan Ensign was present - he fought under Capt. George Owsley who was in command of Ft. Curtiss from 1862-64.
