Utah’s Warriors

After the War of 1812, veterans of the conflict spread westward as the nation expanded. Some eventually made their homes in what would become the State of Utah.

We have currently identified the following War of 1812 veterans who later lived and died in Utah. The Utah Society is working to preserve their stories and honor their service.

Names shown in blue link to veterans whose graves have been formally marked and dedicated by the Utah Society of the War of 1812.

Elias Adams   Samuel Alger
Caleb Baldwin   Charles Barney
Alfred Bell   Cyril Call
Ambrose Colvin   John Egbert
Timothy Foote   Jonathan Griffith
Martin Harris   Ezekiel Lee

Our work continues. As additional veterans are honored, their names will be linked to pages preserving their stories and documenting their grave-marking ceremonies.
