Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to bring into one volume the various records pertaining to the Revolutionary War soldiers and widows of soldiers who have ties to Switzerland County, Indiana. Included are Switzerland County inhabitants who have not previously been identified as having served in the Revolutionary War. Recognition is given to the widows who settled in Switzerland County after the death of the widow's soldier husband. There are ninety-eight soldiers who lived in Switzerland County, four other soldiers who had ties to Switzerland County, and eight men listed in earlier compilations that either did not live in the county or did not serve in the Revolutionary War. Records compiled for all of these men and women are included in this volume. Entries are alphabetically arranged by surname of the patriot and include: the full name of the patriot, date and place of birth, name of spouse(s), service state(s), service description, rank, proof of service, pension application number, residences, place of death and burial, and other information, followed by abstracts of original documents, such as the pension application, the final payment voucher, land records, census records and more. In order to trace the county's earliest settlers, the author consulted the land records of the Northwest Territory, State of Ohio, Indiana Territory, and Switzerland County, Indiana, as some of these individuals settled (squatted) in the current Switzerland County area when it was still a part of the Northwest Territory. Several dozen sources were examined to determine the service of these Revolutionary soldiers. Citation of each source is identified in these pages. The focus of this work is not genealogy; however, any genealogical information found in the source material has been included. Three appendices complete this work: a list of soldiers and state(s) of service, a list of Revolutionary War soldiers who lived in Switzerland County, and "Interesting observations discovered during compilation of this work."

Download or read book Hoosiers and the American Story written by Madison, James H. and published by Indiana Historical Society. This book was released on 2014-10 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A supplemental textbook for middle and high school students, Hoosiers and the American Story provides intimate views of individuals and places in Indiana set within themes from American history. During the frontier days when Americans battled with and exiled native peoples from the East, Indiana was on the leading edge of America’s westward expansion. As waves of immigrants swept across the Appalachians and eastern waterways, Indiana became established as both a crossroads and as a vital part of Middle America. Indiana’s stories illuminate the history of American agriculture, wars, industrialization, ethnic conflicts, technological improvements, political battles, transportation networks, economic shifts, social welfare initiatives, and more. In so doing, they elucidate large national issues so that students can relate personally to the ideas and events that comprise American history. At the same time, the stories shed light on what it means to be a Hoosier, today and in the past.

Download or read book A Companion to Women s Military History written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-08-17 with total page 677 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Military institutions have everywhere and always shaped the course of history, but women’s near universal participation in them has largely gone unnoticed. This volume addresses the changing relationships between women and armed forces from antiquity to the present. The eight chapters in Part I present broad, scholarly reviews of the existing literature to provide a clear understanding of where we stand. An extended picture essay documents visually women’s military work since the sixteenth century. The book’s second part comprises eight exemplary articles, more narrowly focused than the survey articles but illustrating some of their major themes. Military history will benefit from acknowledging women’s participation, as will women’s history from recognizing military institutions as major factors in molding women’s lives. Contributors include Jorit Wintjes, Mary Elizabeth Ailes, John A. Lynn, Barton C. Hacker, Kimberly Jensen, Margaret Vining, D’Ann M. Campbell, Carol B. Stevens, Jan Noel, Elizabeth Prelinger, Donna Alvah, Karen Hagemann, Yehudit Kol-Inbar, Dorotea Gucciardo and Megan Howatt, and Judith Hicks Stiehm.
