[edit] Birthplace

Anyone know what is up with this guy's birthplace? The first page of Google hits gives Delaware City, Kingston, and Little Taylor Run, Ohio. - Hephaestos 02:18, 24 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Well, according to Mapquest, Little Taylor Run isn't a true city (probably a tiny village). However, Delaware City & Kingston are kinda... far away from each other... civilwarhome.com says Delaware City, and that's my most reliable site. However, I don't know... I'll just leave it as it is then. ugen64 01:01, Nov 25, 2003 (UTC)
It's possible also that Little Taylor Run isn't a populated area now, but was then. Kind of hard to say at this point, but I'm sure we'll get it exact eventually. - Hephaestos 01:04, 25 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Yeah. That would make sense. ugen64 03:39, Nov 25, 2003 (UTC)


General William S. Rosecrans was born in Delaware County, Kingston Township, Ohio. The farm on which he was born is located approximately four miles northwest of Sunbury, Ohio. There is a very nice stone monument erected on the site which is located on Rosecrans Road, approximately a quarter mile east of the intersection of Rosecrans Road and Carter's Corner Road. Little Taylor Run is a small stream that crosses the site.
