Cheshire Historical Society at the Hitchcock-Phillips House

Cheshire, Connecticut, United States

The Society’s official house description states that Eri Davidson Woodbury’s Medal of Honor is displayed on the wall of the Exhibit Room. The Congressional Medal of Honor Society also identifies the Cheshire Historical Society as the medal location, providing direct institutional and recipient-database support for the named original-medal exhibit.

Open to the public

Submarine Force Library and Museum (USS Nautilus)

Groton, Connecticut, United States

The museum’s own published collection overview identifies a dedicated Medal of Honor gallery honoring eight submariners. It is therefore a direct destination for submarine recipients’ stories, but the gallery description does not establish possession of any original presentation medals; changing exhibit arrangements require current visitor confirmation.

U.S. Coast Guard Museum at the Academy

New London, Connecticut, United States

The service’s sole Medal of Honor recipient, Douglas A. Munro, has a long documented institutional connection to this museum. Coast Guard reporting confirms his original medal was taken from its Academy home for a time-limited loan to the National Medal of Honor Museum in January 2025; the article projected its return, not a confirmed 2026 display.
