Photo showing American flag taken June 20, 2022 (Juneteenth). The flag is on the site where, according to legend, the Granville Minutemen held drills before going to Ticonderoga during the Revolutionary War. Among them was Lemuel Haynes who grew up in West Granville and served as the first minister of the West Granville Church. He was the first ordained black Congregationalist minister in the country, a patriot dedicated to this country, and an outspoken abolitionist.
