The objectives of the Society are the collection and
preservation of rolls, records, books, and other
documents relating to the War of 1812; the
encouragement of research and the pre-servation of
historical data, including mem-orials to patriots of that
era in our national history; the caring for the graves of
veterans of the War of 1812; the cherishing,
maint-enance and extension of the institutions of
American freedom; and the fostering of true patriotism
and love of country.
