Please review the status of our Newspaper Digitization Project using the selection in the menu bar at the left. Notes from our winter meeting. Since this is our country's 250th birthday year, we talked about a few Revolutionary War Soldiers that lived in the area of Chilton County. Some notes: There are three grave markers known in the county. There are almost certainly two more county burials of unknown location. Another is buried in Autauga County. Another lived here and likely moved south with descendents. There were certainly more veterans here than this but, since these were some of the very first people to move to the area, very little information is available. The county has no known marked graves earlier than the 1830s. These men would have been 55 - 70 years old when Alabama became a state in 1819 so many may have died before 1830. Most came here as old men following descendants who were doing the actual moving and settling.
