In memory of
Abraham and Edward Wing
Pioneers
in the Town of Queensbury
They were descended from
Rev. John Wing
and
Deborah Batchelder

She with four sons came to America in 1632. In 1762 King George gave a grant of the Town of Queensbury to Abraham and Edward Wing and others. About 1785 the Society of Friends built a log meeting house on this ground. Here was kept the first school, here was the first burial ground of the pioneer fathers.
