REVOLUTIONARY SOLDIERS BURIED
in GEAUGA COUNTY, OHIO
Source: A Record of the Revolutionary Soldiers buried in Lake County, Ohio, etc.
by New Connecticut Chapter D.A.R., Painesville, Ohio

     Until 1840, Lake and Geauga Counties were one, under the name of Geauga, most of these Revolutionary Soldiers who were pensioners received their pension under the Act of 1832, while Lake Co., was a part of Geauga.
     The primary work of New Connecticut Chapter was locating Lake County's soldiers, but in so doing, we have located by townships the following list for Geauga Co., hoping some one will be patriotic enough to make it a complete list, giving the military record of each, with dates of birth and death, and the place of burial.
