Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Battle of Fort Sackville appears in every history of Vincennes and Knox County, yet so much more defines this area. Everyone is familiar with George Rogers Clark, but few know about ordinary but accomplished figures like diplomat Hubbard Taylor Smith and Civil War veteran Joseph Roseman. The Stibbins murder of 1911 and other long-forgotten crimes once shocked the county, and visits by politicians and entertainers, including Buffalo Bill Cody, enthralled residents before quickly slipping from memory. Weather made history, too, such as the destructive hailstorm that pounded northern Knox County in 1907. With the help of rare photographs, local historian and Sun-Commercial columnist Brian Spangle brings to life these stories and more.

This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Old Vincennes and Knox County, Indiana, Vol. 1 History, authenticated and systematically compiled, that deals directly with pioneer life of the great northwest territory, is as charming as the most beautiful romance and as fascinating as any picture ever drawn with the facile pen Of fiction. The historian, in the development Of a field that invites his thought and inspires his pen, unearths facts that lie buried beneath the dust of ages, which shine forth as the light Of truth reveals the story of their being with a delightful brilliancy that the recital Of fanciful tales cannot impart. The story Of the growth and development of the boundless territory of which Vincennes was the capital will begin at a period when the land scape was a gloomy and impenetrable wilderness, whose tranquility was broken only by the cries of savage men and still more savage beasts, when the dark and dense woods rang with the melody of feathered songsters and caught the rhythmic rippling of many waters, and end with the brilliant achievements Of today, which the twentieth century has wrought, ever revering the memory of those men whose hearts Of steel and muscles of iron, whose indomitable courage and nobility Of purpose impelled them to invade that hostile land and blaze the way for the higher civilization and its attendant blessings which we now enjoy.

This book was released on 2017-10-15 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Old Vincennes and Knox County, Indiana, Vol. 2 One of the-surprises of modern times, unknown before the advent of the telegraph and the railroad but standing out more clearly in very recent years, is the rapid growth of important business enterprises. Not like Jonah's gourd, which we are told sprang up in a night and disappeared the next day, are many of these magnificent creations of the marvelous brain of man. Some of them assumed tangible shape quickly, but fostered and encouraged by genius, they have grown from a slender sapling to a great tree which, like the banyan, gives shelter to thousands. In the list of great modern enterprises should be named the Vincennes Bridge Company. Conceived only ten years ago and starting only as a little factory with a small financial foundation but great expectations, the Vincennes Bridge Company has gained a name which is known all over the world and is today one of the largest manufactories of highway bridges in existence. Its output of twelve hundred bridges yearly fails to meet the constantly increasing demand and extensive plans are made for large additions. The plant is thoroughly modern and is supplied with all the ma chinery and devices for fabricating the iron and steel into shape and redue ing the material to sizes convenient for transportation and handling; at the place of consignment. This plant is one of the most important works. At Vincennes and as its output has already reached a million dollars a year, . The prospect of largely increased capacity is regarded with unmixed grati fication by everybody interested in the welfare and growth of the city.

Excerpt: ...and Sycamore streets, where Epworth League sessions and prayer meetings are held every Thursday evening. Bethel Chapel Methodist church (colored) is at the intersection of Tenth and Bunten streets. It has been an organization for many years. Its present pastor is Rev. Robt. H. Williamson, who conducts regular Sabbath service and Sunday school and holds prayer meetings every Wednesday night. THE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. The year 1833 is the date when Presbyterianism in Vincennes had its second rise, because it was at this period when a certain number of persons withdrew from the Indiana church. As has been previously stated, the Indiana church, of which Vincennes Presbyterians were communicants, was organized in 18o6--such an organization having been perfected in a barn owned by Col. Small, about two miles northeast of Vincennes and about midway between the courthouse and the site now occupied by the Upper Indiana church. The courthouse was for many years prior to 1833 used as a place of Divine worship by Vincennes Presbyterians, who were of the congregation and, hence, a part of the original church organization. The oldest record book extant of the sessions of the Indiana' church, from August 12, 1812, to September 29, 1844, shows that previous to the organization of the Vincennes church the meetings of sessions were held at Lower Meeting House, Upper Meeting House and Vincennes, and as often, or oftener, in Vincennes than either of the other places, which were located in the country. The synod met at Vincennes and held their meetings and the Lord's Supper here as early as 1828. On the site occupied by the present handsome edifice, corner Fifth and Busseron streets, the first church was dedicated April 16, 1831--nearly two years...

Some claim the fort was none other than the one Clark took from Hamilton; others that it stood on the river bank near the foot of Broadway, while still others contend it was four miles above town. Henry Vanderburg, first president of the territorial legislature, came to Vincennes with the first influx of Americans, and his name added luster to the old town and gave dignity to the judiciary of the Indiana territory, which he entered at the close of the Revolutionary war, honored and distinguished in the service of his country. Descended of a prominent Dutch pioneer family of New Amsterdam, Judge Henry Vanderburg was born in Troy, N. Y., in 1760, and when a mere lad shouldered a musket and went to the front to fight for American liberty and independence. His public services have been ably noted in an old sketch written many years ago by Judge Law, who obtained the facts of Mrs. Vanderburg, and are of sufficient importance to admit of reproduction in this publication. It is stated in the sketch that Judge Vanderburg was appointed a lieutenant in the Fifth New York regiment to rank as such from the 21st day of November, 1776, his commission being signed by John Jay. He was reappointed on the 20th day of June 1779, and a year later was made captain of the Continental troops, serving with honor until peace was declared. Independence being secured, ..
