John Corman.

   John Corman, a member of Captain Price's company, was a native of Wayne
county, Pa. He was born in 1792. He removed to Kentucky in very early life, and
when the call was made for volunteers, in 1812, he promptly offered his
services. He was the first man in Captain Price's command to fire a gun in the
battle of Raisin. He killed an Indian and a British soldier early in the morning.

   He long lived in the western part of Jessamine county as one of its best and
worthiest citizens and died in 1876, in his eighty-second year. He was brave,
honest and patriotic.
