PARSIPPANY — The Parsippany Historical and Preservation Society and the Parsippany Historic Preservation Advisory Committee have partnered with Parsippany Presbyterian Church to host a public reading of the Declaration of Independence, part of a nationwide commemoration of its first public reading 250 years ago.
Parsippany Presbyterian Church sits in what was once the Village of Parsippany during the American Revolution. The adjacent Vail Cemetery and Parsippany Presbyterian Burial Ground, site of the original church, is the final resting place of Parsippany’s Revolutionary War veterans.
