Earlier this month I wrote about going by the grave and marker of Major Watson at the Linn-Hebron Cemetery in Hebron, Illinois, on a Firebird Cruise. He is a War of 1812 veteran and also believed to be the only veteran of the American Revolution buried in McHenry County, Illinois.
I got to wondering if there were any more War of 1812 veterans buried in McHenry County besides Major Watson.
I did a search under War of 1812 veterans buried in McHenry County, Illinois and found that Sandie had created a virtual McHenry County, Illinois, War of 1812 veteran site in the Find-A-Grave site.
She has two men listed:
David Walker Hyde (1795 - 1880)
John Stewart (1777 - 6 November 1869)
Both are buried in the same cemetery named Hebron Cemetery, also located in Hebron where Major Watson was buried.
Looks Like I'll Have to Check This Cemetery Out in the Future. --Brock-Perry
