I am new to the list and know almost nothing about searching for War of 1812 info. My GGGG grandfather, William Wall (born about 1770), of Shelby Co., KY fought in the War of 1812 He was in the Kentucky Mounted Volunteer Militia under the command of Maj. P. Dudley and Capt. Isaac Watkins. Any suggestions on where to look for information about him as a solider or where his group fought. John W. Wall http://www.johnwall.com/family/tree.htm
John, key in Kentucky on the this same 1812 general search section, and check out the queries, that pop up. There is some information about the Kentucky Mounted Volunteer Militia and some sources to read. Here is another, " Kentucky and the Second American Revolution," by James Wallace Hammock, University Press of Kentucky .
