Recovering The History

Dearborn County



In the quest for information about the Patriot soldiers of the American Revolution, who resided in Dearborn County, four were used. Each one gave different information, as each was written in a different time period. Records were not kept then, as they are today. The two books that information was gathered from, are very large books and contain about two thousand pages between the two books, therefore many subjects are covered about everyday life in that time period.

As for item number four, "Sons of the American Revolution" it is expected the reader to go online http://graves.inssar.org and enter "dearborn" in "County" field, as there is personal information given for most of the Patriots that are given in this list. Also if you enter "Ohio" in the "County" field you will find that a few, of those shown on the list were actually buried in Ohio County, rather than Dearborn County as stated.
