Eagle Scout Candidate Zach Kramer Searches For Revolutionary Soldier Remains At Symmes Park

In the heart of Hamilton, Ohio, a stirring tale of youthful dedication unfolds as Zackary Kramer, a 17-year-old junior at Badin High School, takes the reins of history with a profound sense of duty and reverence. Motivated by a sense of injustice surrounding the unmarked resting place of Revolutionary War veteran Paul Bonnel and his wife Mary in what is now Symmes Park, Kramer sets out on a mission to rectify this historical oversight.

Partnering with The Underground Detective, a Cincinnati-based company renowned for its expertise in uncovering hidden truths, Kramer embarks on a quest to locate the long-forgotten graves of these honorable figures. Driven by a deep-rooted passion for history, Kramer expresses, "We're searching for their exact position so we can honor them more justly."

Hamilton, steeped in the annals of American history with the establishment of Fort Hamilton in 1791, bears witness to Kramer's unwavering commitment to preserving its heritage. The grounds of Symmes Park, once the hallowed Hamilton Burying Grounds, hold within their midst the echoes of bygone eras. Though the majority of souls were relocated to Greenwood Cemetery in 1848, the Bonnels remained undisturbed, prompting Kramer's resolute endeavor.

As the Hollow Earth Festival approaches on April 13, Kramer's dedication shines brightly, illuminating the path to remembrance. Contemplating the possibility of discovering the Bonnels' final resting place, Kramer remains steadfast in his resolve. "If we can undoubtedly find them, we'll place a marker there," he declares, envisioning a tribute befitting their valor and sacrifice.

Yet, even amidst uncertainty, Kramer's commitment remains unwavering. With profound respect for the sanctity of the deceased, he asserts, "We will not exhume the Bonnels' remains or any others we may locate." Instead, a ceremony of reverence will ensue, paying homage to their memory and the legacy they left behind.

Chris Maraschiello, a teacher at the Hamilton Freshman High School, recognizes the significance of this endeavor. "It's just really great to have kids interested in history," he acknowledges, emphasizing the importance of nurturing such passion for posterity.

In the crucible of Hamilton's history, Zackary Kramer emerges as a beacon of hope, illuminating the path to remembrance and honoring the valor of those who came before. With each step forward, he breathes life into the past, ensuring that the legacy of the Bonnels and all who rest in Symmes Park endures for generations to come.
