The War of 1812 was a conflict between the United States and Great Britain, lasting from 1812 to 1815. It was primarily fueled by issues such as trade restrictions due to Britain's ongoing war with France, impressment of American sailors into the British Navy, and British support of Native American tribes against American expansion. The war ended with the Treaty of Ghent, restoring pre-war boundaries but resolving few of the initial disputes.

Biography/Obituary
The Chicago Republican of November 27, 1827, had the following regarding Thomas Cole:
His days were industriously spent in the pursuits of agriculture. He was exemplary in his morals and just in his dealings. The wear of time had so enfeebled his nerves, that he was confined to his bed nine days before his death: and we may with propriety quote the words of the poet as applicable:
'Of no distemper, of no blast he died'
But fell like Autumn fruit that mellowed long;
E'en wondered at, because falls no sooner.
Fate seemed to wind him up for four score years,
Yet freshly ran he on, twelve winters more,
Till like a clock worn out with beating time
The wheels of weary life at last stood still.'
Surely a grand old man, a patriarch of the Biblical type. Oxford still has Coles living there, and memorial fountain in the park was presented to the city by one of the family, in memory of Calvin and Fayette (Balcom) Cole.
