In 1815, Carlisle was founded.

Sullivan County was formed in 1817 from Knox county. It was named for Daniel Sullivan, said by some sources to have been a Revolutionary War general killed by Native Americans while carrying a dispatch between Fort Vincennes and Louisville.

A log courthouse in Merom served as Sullivan County's first county seat from 1819-1842. Merom was an important river port and a stop on the stage route known as The Old Harrison Trail.

Sullivan was founded in 1853 and became the county seat.

 

Welcome! My name is Judi Burns and I am the new County Coordinator for Sullivan County.  I would like to encourage you to contribute to the site if you have information to share. I can't run down to the court house or over to the library to find out about your "Aunt Harriet" and I most definitely don't know where grandpa is. I'm her to put your information online. I'm not able to do your research for you.

This site is dedicated to providing FREE information, we don't charge you to use the site or for the information here. However, please do not violate any copyright© laws. You are absolutely encouraged to use the information here for your personal research and Please feel free to provide me with more information for the site. It is sadly lacking.

 

Like the previous coordinator, I must state up front that I do not live in Sullivan County.  I live in Oklahoma, and that is a mighty long walk for this ol' lady. I'm happy to put your information online and point you in the direction you need to proceed, unfortunately I really can't do the research.

This is an ongoing collective project. Please feel free to make helpful suggestions for improvements to the site and to offer assistance. Please take time to visit the Indiana Genealogy Website Home Page. You will find their link on every page. Thank you for visiting. Please return soon!
