1816 Indiana State Constitutional Delegates

A Virtual Cemetery created by Liz Owens

43 memorials

In June 2016, in celebration of Indiana’s Bicentennial, the Indiana Archives and Records Administration will be honoring the Founders of Indiana: forty-three early settlers who met in Corydon two-hundred years ago to establish Indiana’s statehood and write its first Constitution. During the month of June the Archives staff is planning a series of graveside memorials to honor these early pioneers. From June 9 to June 29, 2016, we’ll be traveling around the state to memorialize each 1816 State Constitutional Delegate with a public ceremony at his burial site. Each event will feature an IARA staff person serving as Master of Ceremonies, a keynote speaker who will share information about the delegate’s life and achievements, a flag ceremony, a wreath-laying, and in some cases military honors and/or music.
