Hi Sandy,
I sure do know the name. It is Redenbaugh Cemetery. It is off of231 in Crawfordsville, at the Southmont High School. If you are on231 heading towards Crawfordsville, the school is on the left side ofthe road, you turn on a county rd to get to the road to the school,turn left on to the school street, and the cemetery is on the left.
It was discovered a few years ago, and it was almost completelydestroyed. It's been restored, and Frederick's grave was kept insidethe school for about 3 years until they finally had the whole cemeteryrestored.
The land that the school is on, once belonged to the Redenbaughs/ andDouglas's. And all the farm land across from the school belonged tothem.

"[NI2052] JEREMIAH REDENBAUGH is a retired farmer, living just outsidethe city limits of Crawfordsville, but he still retains possession ofhis farm, which is located in Walnut Township, Montgomery County. Mr.Redenbaugh is a son of Henry R. Redenbaugh, one of the early settlersof this portion of Indiana, who was born born January 2, 1800, nearRodden, Ohio.

Frederick Redenbaugh, the grandfather of our subject, was a native ofGermany, came to this country some time during the last century, andfirst located in Pennsylvania, whence he moved to Ohio, and from thereto Indiana in the early days of the settlement of the state. Aftercoming here he first settled among the pioneers of Jefferson County,and then came to Montgomery County, where his life was closed at theadvanced age of eighty-six years. He was a soldier under Gen. Harrisonat the famous battle of Tippecanoe, and he served with the Generalduring the war of 1812. He married Margaret Haney in Pennsylvania, andthey had twelve children, of whom their son William, who lives inFountain County at the advanced age of eighty-one years, is the onlysurvivor. The grandfather of our subject was an ardent Democrat in hisday, and was a leader in local politics.

Henry Redenbaugh Was the fifth child born to his parents, and was ayoung man when he accompanied them to Jefferson County, this state. Hethere met and married Mary Douglas, daughter of Jeremiah and Jane(Huthert) Douglas. They had come from England to this country andfirst settled near Cincinnati, whence they afterwards removed toJefferson County, this state. After his marriage Henry Redenbaughremained awhile in Jefferson County, and then came to MontgomeryCounty in 1828. He took up eighty acres of government land, which hecleared and improved, and developed it into a fine farm, upon which heremained until his death, September, 1891, at the venerable age ofninety-one years. In dying he left behind him an honorable record asan active and useful pioneer, as a good citizen, and as a desirableneighbor. He was the father of twelve children, of whom the followinggrew up maturity and are still living: John, a painter, residing atNewton, Kansas.; Jeremiah; Mary (Mrs. Brush). who lives in Iowa; SarahAnn, who lives in Boone County; William R., a resident ofCrawfordsville; Joe, a resident of Mace, and Eliza (Mrs. McMullen) aresident of Boone County.

Jeremiah Redenbaugh was born in Jefferson County, in the southern partof this state, May 25, 1824, and he was a child of three years whenhis parents brought him to their new home amid the pioneer scenes ofMontgomery County. He was reared in Scott Township, and has a distinctrecollection of the appearance of the country in all its wildness whenhe was a boy, and he can remember when Crawfordsville had but three orfour houses in it. He made his home. with his father until he wastwenty-one, and then married established a home of his own with thehelp of his wife. She was Elizabeth Corn in her maiden days and adaughter of William Corn, of Clark Township, one of the early settlersof the county.

Twelve children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Redenbaugh, of whom five areliving: Sarah Jane, wife of Thomas N. Hosier; William, George W.,Eliza Ellen and Nancy Eddenfield. Mr. and Mrs. Hosier have one child,Viola Ellen, aged nine years. The names of the deceased children ofour subject are: Joseph Henry, Albert, Mary Alice, Andrew, Charlie andJohn, and one child who died in infancy unnamed. April 29, 1888,Jeremiah Redenbaugh had the misfortune to lose his wife, who hadwalked by his side for more than forty years, and to whoseencouragement, cheerful assistance and wise counsel he was greatlyindebted. Her age at the time of her death was sixty years, six monthsand twenty-seven days. She left behind her a blessed memory as awife,/ mother and friend.

Mr. Redenbaugh bought a piece of land in Walnut Township after hismarriage, and there he and his wife commenced keeping house together.He worked hard to improve it, and bought other land-until his farmcomprised two hundred acres most excellent farming ]and. In 1886 heretired from active business, and from the rental of farm he derives agood income. His career farmer has placed him among the citizens ofthe township, although he began poor. This fact shows that besidebeing prudent and thrifty, he also carried on his methodically, andwas shrewd and far-seeing his management of his affairs. Politicallyhe is Democrat of stanch principles. He belongs to the MontgomeryCounty Horse Thief Detective Association, and has always enteredreadily into scheme for protecting the interests of the farmer."http://www.geocities.com/gscircle/notes.html

The Madison Administration
Battle of Tippecanoe
November 7, 1811
http://www.u-s-history.com/pages/h1017.html
Following the signing of the Treaty of Greenville in summer 1795,relative peace prevailed between the white settlers and the natives ofthe Old Northwest. The Washington and Adams administrations at leastpaid lip service to the terms of the treaty, but Jefferson (the greatagrarian philosopher) sought additional lands for American farmersthrough a series of purchases from the tribes. Not all thefrontiersmen bothered with the niceties of treaties and simplyoccupied Indian lands illegally.
Not without reason, resentment among the tribes ran high. In 1808,Tecumseh, a Shawnee chieftain, and his brother Tenskwatawa (known tothe Americans as The Prophet) launched a reform movement among theirpeople. They attempted to end the sale of additional lands to thewhites and to resist alcohol and other troublesome temptations of thecompeting culture. A new native settlement was built at the confluenceof the Wabash and Tippecanoe rivers (north of present-day Lafayette,Indiana) and became known as Prophet?s Town. The village became thefocal point of Tecumseh?s effort to rally the tribes east of theMississippi River in the hope of halting the spread of whitesettlements.
William Henry Harrison was governor of the Indiana Territory andsuperintendent of the Northwest Indians. Fearing the growing strengthof Tecumseh?s confederacy, Harrison decided to strike quickly. Hemarched an army of 1,100 men along the Wabash toward Prophet?s Town.Tecumseh was temporarily out of the area on a recruiting venture amongthe Creeks in the south, but his brother prepared the men for battlewith fiery oratory ? including promises that they could not be harmedby the white men?s bullets. Shortly before dawn on November 7, 1811,Harrison?s soldiers were attacked. After a two-hour battle, thenatives were forced to flee and their village ? the gathering spot ofthe confederacy ?was destroyed. Some military historians regard theBattle of Tippecanoe as a draw, but note that it held importantramifications:
The safety of the white settlements in the Indiana Territory becamemarkedly improved.
The Prophet was discredited as a leader because of his inability toensure the promised invincibility from the opponents' bullets and alsobecause he had violated Tecumseh's earlier counsel to hold off anyarmed confrontation until his return.
The confederation of the eastern tribes disintegrated.
The bitterly disappointed Tecumseh, who did not return to Indiana foranother three months, remained an implacable foe of the Americansettlers. He would later become allied with the British andparticipate in the War of 1812.
William Henry Harrison emerged with a reputation as the hero ofTippecanoe, an image that he would use to his political advantage inlater years.

The War of 1812
Causes of the War of 1812
http://www.u-s-history.com/pages/h1963.html
"Mr. Madison's War," as it was sometimes called, was fueled by severalfactors:
Anger over the violation of American neutral rights
The clamor of the so-called War Hawks
The real or imagined British hand in stirring up Native Americanunrest in the West, particularly the exploits of Tecumseh.
President Madison did not possess Jefferson's skill at keeping theUnited States out of war, but in any event the War Hawks' stridentactivities had changed the landscape. Popular opinion in the South andWest clearly favored the conflict. Madison realized, however, that thecountry was poorly prepared. The United States maintained a weak,scattered army and a navy that was virtually insignificant bycomparison to Britain's. The prospects and strategy of the UnitedStates left much to be desired.
Nevertheless, pro-war sentiment helped carry Madison to a second termin the Election of 1812.
1812-1815
The war sealed America's independence. Failing to capture Canada, thearmy prevented the British from taking Baltimore and New Orleans.
Most army battles occurred along the Canadian border, Chesapeake Bayregion and the Gulf of Mexico. Artillery units made a largecontribution.
The War of 1812
Battle of New Orleans
January 1815
Before peace was concluded in December 1814, the British launched aneffort to seize a portion of southern Louisiana, including the prizedcity of New Orleans.
The renowned Battle of New Orleans occurred on January 8, 1815,several weeks after the Treaty of Ghent was signed. However, thetreaty had provided that the hostilities were to continue until bothsides ratified the agreement; that did not occur until February 1815.
American forces, a mismatched group of militia and pirates underAndrew Jackson, decisively defeated British regulars, veterans of theNapoleonic Wars. British losses were approximately 700 killed and1,400 wounded; American losses amounted to only eight killed and 13wounded. The victory obviously had no impact on the outcome of thewar, but it was a major confidence builder for the American militaryand the nation.

"Frederick "Redinbo
Frederick Redinbo was born September 12, 1773, probably in BerksCounty, Pennsylvania, near the town of Reading, son of Henry andMargaret Redinbo (a.k.a. Redenbaugh, etc.). Frederick married AnnaMargaret Haney and parented his first son, George, who was born about1793, probably in Berks County, Pennsylvania. According to theHistory of Hamilton County, Ohio, by Henry A. & Mrs. Kate B. Ford,published in 1881, Frederick moved his family to Sycamore Township,Hamilton County, Ohio, in the spring of 1795 and settled there alongwith his parents and other siblings. On August 11, 1812, at the ageof 38, Frederick enlisted in the 1st Ohio Militia Regiment ofVolunteer Riflemen (Col. David Sutton's Regiment) in the battalioncommanded by Major Joseph Jenkins for a term of six months and wasassigned to the company of Capt. Asa Hinkle with the rank of private.His son, George, also enlisted at the same time making Frederick andGeorge the second known "Redinbo" father-and-son combination to servein Capt. Hinkle's Company. Frederick's brother, John Redinbo, andJohn's son, Jeremiah, also served under Capt. Hinkle. The militiaunit was organized at the "Cincinnati Encampment" and moved northwardfrom there along the western border of the State of Ohio, following aline of fortified encampments which had been erected previously by theforces of General "Mad" Anthony Wayne. Wayne had built numerous fortsin western Ohio during his campaign against the Indians whichculminated in the defeat of Chief Blue Jacket at the Battle of FallenTimbers in 1794. Some of these forts were still standing in variousstates of disrepair and were utilized by the American armies duringthe War of 1812, particularly by the forces under William HenryHarrison during his approach to Ft. Detroit which had fallen underBritish control less than a week after the enlistment of the Redinbos. Not much is known regarding the particular activities of Capt.Hinkle's Company during its six-month existence during the War of1812. Some evidence indicates that the unit spent at least part ofits time improving roads and guarding supply wagons. It is known thatCapt. Hinkle's Company was "mustered out" on February 11, 1813, at St.Mary's, a settlement now located in Auglaize County, Ohio, which wasformerly known as "Girty's Town." Ft. St. Mary's (a.k.a. Ft. Barbee)was one of the forts built by Anthony Wayne and later utilized as aheadquarters by William Henry Harrison prior to his advance on Ft.Detroit. At some point following his War of 1812 service, FrederickRedinbo moved from Hamilton County, Ohio, to Montgomery County,Indiana. Frederick's National Archives warrant file contains twoaffidavits filed from Montgomery County: one filed in 1850 fromCrawfordsville, Montgomery County, Indiana, and another filed fromMontgomery County on March 31,1855, in which Frederick states that, atthat time, he was 82 years of age. He had already been awarded abounty-land warrant (#7117) for 80 acres in May of 1851 for hisservice in the War of 1812. Frederick Redinbo reportedly died June15, 1856, near the town of Crawfordsville, Montgomery County, Indiana,shortly after filing the above-mentioned affidavit."

Randy Patrick is anarcheologist who is the science dept head at Southmont.
Randy has done some digs helping to establish very early cemeteries inthe
south part of the state. Having a surface dig on the school property
provided him with a wonderful teaching laboratory. He's beenthrilled, and
it's so wonderful to have an expert working on this. At this pointhe is
locating the bits of the broken headstones. Will beginreconstructing them

THE HISTORY OF READING, OHIO 1794 - 2001
Internet Source:
http://www.readinghighschool.com/Other%20Web%20Pages/The%20History%20of/
The-History-of.htm
"Settlement Of Voorhees Town
In 1794, Abraham Voorhees, Sr. ...from.....through the mountains ofPennsylvania, down the Ohio River to present day Cincinnati. ...tothe banks of the Mill Creek in Sycamore Township via an Indian trailthen known as the "Great Road." This trail extended from Kentucky tothe Great Lakes.
Shortly after the Voorhees settled, Harvey (Henry) Redinbo fromReading, Pennsylvania, visited the area. He liked what he saw andproceeded to purchase the south half of section 27 (30 Aug 1795) fromJohn Cleves Symmes. In the spring of 1795, Redinbo with his wifeMargaret and their family of eight sons and three daughters came totake possession of his purchase. One son drowned during the arduousjourney. (Solomon) After seeing the land, Redinbo was very upset thatit was not located in the fertile flat lands as was the Voorheesproperty. His purchase was hilly terrain in the area, on the East sideof Reading, bounded by what we now know as Hunt Road and ColumbiaAvenue. Believing that he had been defrauded, Redinbo argued for abetter tract, but to no avail. He had no choice but to settle thetitled land. The family cleared the land, constructed a large logcabin and began to develop the land.
After enduring early frontier hardships, they too succeeded asfarmers. Henry Redinbo lived there until his death in 1828 or 1829 atthe age of 94.
Neither the Voorhee?s nor the Redinbo?s experienced serious problemswith the Indians. However, during the first few years, food and otherprovisions were in short supply and occasionally exhausted. Very soonafter the settlement was established, other settlers began moving intothe area. It was around this time when, at Redinbo?s suggestion, thename of the town was changed from Voorhees Town to Reading.
A genealogy search of the Redinbo Family revealed that the spelling ofthe name as recorded in the Reading History books is not the originalspelling. The name was Henry Redinbaugh. It seems that, at some point,John, one of Henry?s sons changed the spelling to Redenbo. It isrecoreded in Reading as Redinbo.

Internet Source:http://www.heritagepursuit.com/Hamilton/HamiltonChapXXXVI.htm
Villages:
In the early spring of 1795 the Voorhees settlement was reinforced bythe arrival of the Redinbo family, consisting of Henry and MargaretRedinbo and their eleven children, viz., Solomon, Frederick, John,Philip, Samuel, Andrew, Henry, Adam, Ann, Barbara, and Margaret. Mr.Olden, from whose sketches these facts are derived, states that theywere from Reading, Berks County, Pennsylvania, and that Solomon wasdrowned while crossing the Schuylkill river, just as they set out ontheir departure for the West. The Redinbos located upon the southernhalf of section 27, and constructed their improvements on laudsubsequently owned by Dr. Thomas Wright.
Frederick and John Redinbo also built cabins on their father's lands.And about the year 1798 Abraham Voorhees laid out the town of Reading,although the plat was not recorded until 1804. It was first calledVoorheestown, but at the suggestion of Henry Redinbo it was changed toReading, in honor of his native place in Pennsylvania."

[Page 1 of notes]
?From Historical Sketches and Early ___in essenes of Hamilton County,Ohio by J.J. Oldin, in 1882, on pages 119-120-a sketch on Vorhees(Voorhees) Settlement. The Vorhees family, including sons - in - law,were sufficiently numbered to form a self sustaining community. Itwas in the fall of 1794 that they moved their families out upon theirimprovements, and but a few months afterwards another large familyjoined their settlement.
Henry Redinbo and his wife Margaret are Pennsylvania Germans residingnear the town of Reading in Berk County. They came to the territoryin spring of 1795, and settled the south half of section 27, adjoiningthe Vorhees? section on the west.
On the 13th day of August following, Mr. Redinbo obtained a deed forhis lands from Judge Symmes. This couple brought the entire familywith them, consisting of eleven children, eight sons and threedaughters nearly all of who are grown men and women. The sons wereSolomon, Frederick, John, Phillip, Samuel, Andrew, Henry and Adam, andthe daughters Ann, Barbara, and Margaret. They built log cabin andborn on the lands now belonging to the estate of Dr. Thomas Wright?(1960)?. The writer, ?(Mr. Olden)? has a distinct recollection ofthese buildings and also of the old couple Henry and Margaret Redinbo. Henry and Margaret
Redinbo both lived to the great age of ninety-four years and both diedwithin the same year, 1828-1829. They were buried near the west lineof their farm, in a northwest direction from the draying (sp) house.Their son, Solomon Redinbo was drowned while crossing Schuylkill Riverin coming to the Miami Country (I wonder if she meant, ?County??)
Page 122 - Frederick and John Redinbo also built cabins on theirfather?s lands. And about the year 1798, Abraham Vorhees laid out thetown of Reading although plat not recorded till 1804. It was firstcalled Vorheestown, Ohio [Page 2 of notes] at the suggestion of HenryRedinbo, it was changed to Reading, in honor of his native place inPennsylvania.?
From Ford History of Hamilton County, Ohio, 1881, p 390, ?Vorhees(Voorhees) station was situated on section 33, near present towns ofLockland and Reading. It was not a blockhouse, or even stockade, buta large, strong, log cabin, which answered for both residence anddefense, and was frequently mentioned, in early times as VorheesStation. It was a strong gamily, almost enough in itself to make aneffective garrison. Abraham Vorhees was the head and front of it, andwith him were his sons - in - law, Thomas Higgins and John Rynearson,with their families, and his five sons, Abraham, Miney, Garrett, John,and Jacob. They began their improvements in spring of 1794 and infall of same year moved their families to the station. They were soonafter joined by another and still larger family, nearly all of themadult persons. The parents were Henry and Margaret Redinbo, of thePennsylvania German stock, who removed from Reading, that state, inthe spring of 1795; their eight sons were Solomon (drowned in thejourney westward), Frederick, John, Phillip, Samuel, Andrew, Henry,and Adam; and the daughters were Ann, Barbara, and Margaret. InAugust of same year they obtained a deed from Judge Symmes of thesouth half of section 27, west of the Vorhees tract, built a cabin andlog barn on property. (Owned by Dr. Thomas Wright 1960) and theresettled. The parents both lived to the age of ninety-four years, anddied in same year, 1828 or 1829. ----- The elder Vorhees laid outupon his land the adjacent village of Reading about 1798, and had itfirst called Vorheestown, but allowed it afterward to be named Readingand the suggestion of Henry Redinbo, from latter?s birthplace (?) inthe Keystone state.? I think Henry was born in Germany 1734/35.
These two articles in the Hamilton County, Ohio histories have almostidentical information, so feel sure it is factual and true.

"What strikes me about this patent, is that it is not in itself anoriginal grant from the government, as we define land patents instates surveyed after the Revolution. The warrantor was HenryReidenbough, but he is not the government or its agent. So now wehave to look for the person(s) from whom Henry acquired it. Maybe itis part of the original Wm Penn purchase, though I think Wm Penn diedmuch before this. His sons took over for him, and I can't rememberwhen they died. But it looks as if Henry Reidenbough got the landfrom either Wm Penn's heirs or the English government. I haven'tlooked into how land was sold by the English, except general knowledgeof the acreage Penn received."

"The origins of the Proprietary Land Office may be traced to 1682 whenWilliam Penn appointed Thomas Holme Surveyor General. Under aconstantly evolving set of procedures and relationships, the SurveyorGeneral cooperated with the Secretary of Proprietary Affairs, a Masterof Rolls, a Receiver General, and Commissioners of Property inconducting the sale of Pennsylvania lands. Acting collectively, thevarious officers who comprised the Land Office were responsible foraccepting applications, issuing warrants, surveying tracts, verifyingreturns of survey and granting patents for tracts of land inPennsylvania. By 1699 the Land Office was operating from SamuelCarpenter's Philadelphia residence, sometimes called the Slate RoofHouse, where William Penn and Secretary of Proprietary Affairs JamesLogan then resided. The Land Office was moved to Clark's Hall whenDeputy Governor John Evans arrived in Philadelphia in 1704. WhenWilliam Penn's heirs, Thomas and John Penn, acted as Commissioners ofProperty from 1733-1741 they conducted Land Office business from theirhome. Upon their return to England, the Penn brothers abolished thepositions of Commissioners of Property and delegated responsibilityfor signing warrants and patents to the Deputy Governor. The Secretaryof Provincial Affairs began conducting land office business from roomsin the west wing of the new State House, the present day IndependenceHall, during the early 1740s. "

Hi
Sorry I have been out of touch . One of the last items I brought uplast year was before my computer crashed was Kem?s papers on thevarious families . I completed a 1790 census in Berks/ Lancastercounties and thought I e-mailed copies. I had included every name ofimportance to our group but also those of our other families. I willlook harder for the zip disk
The oldest Church records I found were there too. I includedLancaster because most of the area to become PA counties was lumped asLancaster the British governing center.
It encompassed 100 mills in every direction; Part of south and eastarea were still listed as Virginia. North and east New Jersey. at thattime . I hadn?t determined yet where the British records were keptif at all after the revolution or sent away with the British.
From other families I have learned the port of embark and the nationwhere the passenger ship was registered was part of the spelling namesconfusion. Some of the Palatine immigrants didn?t sail from Germanports but headed south to a French port and ship then went to Hollandfrom there to the US on British ships. If the ship was British nameswill include all the extra vowels and letters the English languageuses such as ough added to a name that could have been Bach. Dutchusually had oek or H o in spelling. The French Rad and so on.. Aperson who couldn?t write usually ended up with what ever the shipmanifest spelled him.
We are fairly positive the church record listing the names of threechildren spelled Redabach or redenbach was our Henry and Marget?sfamily.
I found two families who could have been spelled Haney after theBritish left. Hennig and Henny.
For example, My GG grandfather had three name changes upon leavingDenmark
Jens son of lars Jorgen?s son became Jens Larsen until he reached Saltlake City several years later . The church told him that doesn?tdefine who you are so he was to be identified with his grandfather andbecame Jens Larsen Jorgensen. That name wasn?t American enough for thenaturalization officials and he was renamed James Larsen Johnsen.Things got really confusing when his first family were Larsen and thesecond was Jorgensen and Grandma?s name was Johnson. While he playedat polygamy.
One reason many families moved west centered around the beginningrevolution.. When Washington nearly lost the war at Brandywine from aflank attack. He had to retreat losing Philadelphia because he didn?thave protection at this back or for supply lines. In regroup he sentmen to the area now Berks County and Lancaster County; with Readingwith their families to protect that supply line. I studied the battleof Brandywine because of the story of n Margaretha Haney ( I think)huddled in her rocker with cannons booming for hours crying, ? Oh! MyStophern ! My Stophen,? (Her son fighting.). Somewhere in that studyI found Frederich Redenbaugh, 19, who settled there before joining hisparents. Once again find the zip.
