The Baptismal Font

The Baptismal Font

The marble baptismal font is a memorial to Elizabeth R. Snelling, daughter of COL Josiah Snelling, who designed Fort Snelling and served as its commandant from 1820 to 1824. The font, which is carved from her original tombstone, is used today for baptisms held during the weekly worship service.
