Why One Michigan City Flies Kentucky State Flags-- Part 1: "Remember the River Raisin"

From the March 6, 2018, River City News (Michigan)  "Why One Michigan City Always Flies Kentucky Flags."

That city is Monroe, Michigan.

The River Raisin flows 139 miles from Rollins Township in Michigan to Lake Erie.

And, the War of 1812 battle cry was "Remember the River Raisin."Monroe has immense gratitude for the large number of soldiers from Kentucky who marched from there after the 1812 Siege of Detroit.  Few would ever return home.
