"When the Congress of the United States passed a resolution on the 7th day of June, 1812, declaring war against Great Britain, there were only eighteen states in the union, and the entire population did not exceed 8,000,000 souls.
The brave men who bore arms in the cause of the Republic in 1812, 1813, and 1814, and survived those campaigns, sought homes for themselves and families in all parts of the mighty West. We have succeeded in obtaining the names of the following soldiers of the war of 1812, who settled in Owen county and died here:
Capt. John Johnson, William Chaney, Thomas Jones, Joseph Clark, Antony S. Foster, Samuel Scott, David Fain, Isaac Brown, John Layman, James D. Madaris, Peter H. Roberts, Samuel McCormick, William Mannan, Isaac Wood, Willis Wood, Isaac Boling, Heronymus Speas, William Scott, Hugh Barnes, Thomas Elliott, William Mason, William Hunt, Ike Boling, Thomas T.
