Wanda If your Brown relatives who served in the Black Hawk War were the ones who enlisted from Vermillion Co Illinoisnthen they likely were serving alongside some of my Hart relatives. My family were on the 1830 Vermillion Co census before moving to Putnam. If you go on www.google.com and enter Black Hawk War you can find the veterans list. William Morgan Hart moved to present-day Mercer County in 1839. (His first and second wives were sisters of my ggg grandfather) This was in Ruth Hart's book about him. "In May of 1832, William Morgan Hart enlisted at Hennepin, Putnam County, Illinois, to fight in the Black Hawk War. He was a 2nd Lieutenant in Captain William Haws Company. This Confrontation with the Sauk (Sac) and Fox Indians, led by Chief Black Hawk lasted only a few months in the summer of 1832, at Hennepin, Illinois. We find a record of his service at the National Archives in Washington, DC Included in the file is an application dated 1855 in Mercer County, Missouri, which shows William Morgan Hart applying for the Bounty Land to which he may be entitled under a recent Act of Congress based on his service in the Black Hawk War. He was issued Warrant # 80817 for 160 acres of land. The records do not show where this land might have been located, and we know nothing more of the disposition of the Warrant or the 160 acres of land." Other members of my Hart family also served in that war were my gggg uncles John Hart, Mathias Hart and William H. Hart . "Andrew Friend fought in the Black Hawk War in Northern Illinois in the early 1830's - the same War in which Dallas Hart's uncle, William Morgan Hart fought." (Andrew's daughter married the nephew of Wm Morgan Hart. Other members of my Hart family also served in that war were my gggg uncles John Hart, Mathias Hart and William H. Hart .) "John served in the Black Hawk War in 1832 as a Corporal in Captain William Haw's Company." "The next year, 1831, we find Mathias and family have moved north west in Illinois to Putnam County, along with other members of his family. Mathias served as a Private in Captain George Willis' Company of Mounted Volunteers in Black Hawk War, 1832. He enlisted 21 May 1832 and served until the Indians had been driven from the area, being mustered out 18 June 1832." "William Hart served as a Private in Captain William Haws' Company of Illinois Volunteers, in the Black Hawk War in northern Illinois in the summer of 1832. We have included a brief history of this War in the section of this book on William's father, Peter Hart. We have been told, that Elizabeth Hubbard Hart applied for a pension based on William's service in this War, after she was widowed. If this is true, the National Archives in Washington, D. C. has "misplaced" the file on William Hart, as we were told, that the Archives, has no record of his service, nor of a pension for his wife." Do you have any Harts in your family?
