Book Synopsis Hidden History of Montgomery County, Indiana by : Jodie Steelman Wilson
Download or read book Hidden History of Montgomery County, Indiana written by Jodie Steelman Wilson and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2012-04-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Montgomery County never fails to surprise the visitor with its unique and varied history. Even local residents are often unaware of some of their county heritage. Anyone who spends some time in Crawfordsville will eventually know about General Lew Wallace, author of the one-time bestseller Ben-Hur, as well as Senator Henry Lane, who helped found the Republican Party and get Abraham Lincoln nominated for the presidency. Wabash College was founded here in 1832 and is one of the two remaining all-male colleges in the nation -- with the dubious honor of having fired Ezra Pound before he went on to fame as a poet. The Hidden History of Montgomery County will touch upon such topics but will also bring to light many of the area's other deserving stories.
Book Synopsis Montgomery County, Indiana, Through Time by : William P. Helling
Download or read book Montgomery County, Indiana, Through Time written by William P. Helling and published by America Through Time. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Montgomery County, Indiana, Through Time is an overview of the eleven townships that make up a county whose recorded history extends back to the 1820s. Montgomery County's largest town, Crawfordsville, is the county seat and sits at the center of all, in its largest and most populated township, Union. Union township is encircled by the other ten county townships, each with its own local interest and varying geography. Some townships retain many reminders of their long history in their towns and the number of residents. Other townships saw settlements and residents come and go, and a few areas are as sparsely populated as they were in the first decades of the nineteenth century. But every township contributed in some way to the formation of Montgomery County and deserves its place in any examination of this unique region that acted as a gateway--and often a stopping point--for the settlement of America's Midwest.
Book Synopsis Hidden History of Hamilton County, Indiana by : David Heighway

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hamilton County's past harbors sundry strange tales, many of them lost to time--until now. In 1867, a groom disappeared just before his wedding, presumably running away on cold feet. Four decades later, his remains were discovered buried under a shed in a mystery that remains unsolved. In the 1870s, the sheriff marshaled a seven-man posse, including two local African Americans, to deal with "desperados" in an isolated corner of the county. Their heroic efforts swiftly liberated the local populace from the yoke of banditry. A giant wave of ravenous squirrels descended on Central Indiana in 1822 to feast on crops, to the shock and dismay of new settlers. Join County Historian David Heighway for a tour of all things odd and forgotten.

Book Synopsis Hidden History of Boone County, Indiana by : Heather Phillips Lusk
Download or read book Hidden History of Boone County, Indiana written by Heather Phillips Lusk and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2022-04 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the center of Indiana lies Boone County, a seemingly quiet place with a colorful past. The stagecoach along the Michigan Road helped to start the county, then the railroad transformed it as new towns were created along the routes. Some of these towns are now gone, leaving behind a few buildings and a sign marking where they once existed. Local vagabond Thorntown Cyrus entertained area residents with his accordion, a couple touted his and hers tractors, and the Cragun twins met a tragic demise. Mysteries surround true stories such as a rogue monkey seen wandering a community and why a butcher attacked a prominent citizen. Author Heather Phillips Lusk brings these stories and more to life to reveal what makes Boone County unique.

Book Synopsis Campaign Crossroads by : Andrew E. Stoner
Download or read book Campaign Crossroads written by Andrew E. Stoner and published by Indiana Historical Society. This book was released on 2016-11 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Campaign Crossroads looks back over the varied, sometimes important, sometimes irrelevant, but always interesting presidential campaign cycles in Indiana’s history. By taking in the influences of technology, transportation and communication itself, we see an evolution in the political process that is not only altogether Hoosier, but also altogether American in its quality and importance. Using a narrative approach with a mix of primary and secondary sources, the work examines not only the rhetoric of presidents and presidential hopefuls, but also the nature of campaigns and their impact on Indiana communities. While Indiana enjoyed the position of being a battleground state for the better part of a century from the 1870s until the 1960s, it has also been ignored, dismissed, and has on occasion created unexpected political drama.

Book Synopsis Hidden History of Henry County, Indiana by : Darrel Radford
Download or read book Hidden History of Henry County, Indiana written by Darrel Radford and published by History Press. This book was released on 2024-05-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rural landscape of Henry County, Indiana, offers a bumper crop of captivating stories deeply rooted in history. John "Snowball" Merida's towering, crowd-thrilling home runs could have landed him in the Major Leagues were it not for his skin color. Native son Gen. Omar Bundy refused to retreat in World War I. His decision in all probability saved Paris from the Germans. A solitary chimney stack is an oddity in a green landscape, but it was in this spot more than a hundred years ago that a decision changed the course of New Castle history. Compiling stories of brave veterans and basketball heroes, nationally known catchphrases and political could-have-beens, author and local historian Darrel Radford uncovers lost gems from Henry County's past.
