1862 MILITIA ENROLLMENT
Tippecanoe Township
Tippecanoe County, Indiana



The following list contains all the males, ages 18-45, who resided in Tippecanoe Township in 1862.  It should be noted that this list consists of those men eligible to serve and not those who actually did serve.   Some of the words were difficult to read, and I have placed an [?] by the ones that were questionable.

    Roll of able-bodied white male citizens resident in Tippecanoe Township, Tippecanoe County, Indiana, over 18 years of age, subject to military duty.
