The dead have also been remembered. About three years ago the attention of patriotic societies in Iowa was drawn to the fact that one or more soldiers of the Revolu- tionary War had spent their last days on Iowa soil. Atten- tion was first drawn to the grave of William Blair who was buried at Kossuth, in Des Moines County; and it was pro- posed by the Sons of the American Revolution to erect in the Historical Department at Des Moines a tablet to his memory. Before the matter took tangible shape
... it was found that five of the patriots of 1770 were known to have been buried in Iowa. These are: William Blair, Kossuth; John Osborn, Center Point; Timothy Brown, Washington; George Perkins, Lee county; and Charles Shepherd, near Mt. Pleasant. The first grave was marked by a fine monu- ment erected by descendants; the second had a monument erected by the G. A. R. and citizens; the third could not be 10 located except that it was in an aljaudoned cemetery; the fourth though identified was not marked; the fifth could not be found except that it was known to be in a certain forty acre tract.
