A new engraved marker for the Braddock Cannon Monument was unveiled last month on the northwest corner of the Braddock and Russell Roads intersection. The marker unveiling comes exactly 100 years to the hour that the original monument was dedicated on May 26, 1915 at 3 p.m. The ceremony was led by the Alexandria Committee chair Virginia Jenkins. Also present was the Virginia State Society president Molly Carey. The National Society of The Colonial Dames of America promotes appreciation for the people, places and events that led to the formation and development of the country.
