The War of 1812 Memorial was dedicated on Aug. 5, 2006. The original monument was dedicated in 1908 at W. Jefferson Ave. near Gibraltar Road by Dr. Hal C. Wyman, moved in 1958-1959 to Parsons School in Gibraltar by the Gibraltar Rotary Club, and moved and restored at this site in 2005-2006 by the Brownstown Historical Society. Its tablets recall surgeons Roby and Allison, officers in Van Horn's command killed at Brownstown on Aug. 5, 1812; the Treaty of Brownstown of November 7, 1807, in which Pottawattomie, Ottawa, Wyandotte, and Chippewa Indians ceded lands to the U.S.; Tecumseh being made a brigadier general by the British at Brownstown in 1812; the Battle of Monguagon on August 8, 1812; Gen. Hull, who commanded American forces at Detroit in the War of 1812; and the Battle of Brownstown on August 5, 1812. Other tablets state that the war from 1812 to 1814 ended scalpbuying in North America, that the ground was stained with the blood of American heroes, and that mementoes were donated to Wallace Post, G.A.R., #95, by Hal C. Wyman, Carrie S. Lamb, Mary H. Hall, Frances Strong, Charles E. Townsend M.C., Fred Hall, Carl Friese, George Frier, Ernest Hall, Eliza Quick, Luther Wood, and Britton Wyman. Additional plaques duplicate the originals dedicated Aug. 8, 1908 and were donated by Harold Thomas Wyman in memory of John Hal Carpenter Wyman Sr. and Isabel Wyman Burger, children of Britton Wyman and Jennie L. Hutchins Wyman.
