October 27th Oglethorpe marker at Fort Frederica St Simons Island Ga.

This marker honors the brave General who led the defense of the fort:


 Oglethorpe:  This remnant is all
that time has spared of the
citadel of the town of Frederica
built by
General Oglethorpe
A.D. 1736
As an outpost against The Spanish in Florida 
 Essentially, besides this main piece, and several excavated ruins, this is all that is left of the once mighty fort.
