Franklin, Charles. Indiana Territorial Pioneer Records 1801-1815, Indianapolis, IN: Heritage House, 1983.

The area that now comprises the state of Indiana was at one time under the jurisdiction of Virginia, when Illinois County was formed in 1778. This geographic designation was followed by the formation of the Northwest Territory in 1787. Indiana Territory was formed by an act of Congress in 1800.

Seven maps have been included to show the genesis of county formations within the present boundaries of the state of Indiana from 1801, when Indiana Territory became a two county territory to 1815, the year preceding Indiana statehood. . . .

The population of Indiana Territory in 1800 was 4875; in 1810 it was 24,520. The 1815 Indiana Territorial Census counted 62,697 people, of which 12,081 were males upwards of 21 years.

Dillon's History quotes Croghan's Journal as an authority on the early population of Indiana Territory. He states that the population of Indiana Territory in 1765 appeared to be 600 to 800 people, of which 80 or 90 families resided in Vincennes, while fourteen families were at Ft. Ouiatenon and nine or ten families were at Twightee Village near Ft. Wayne. From Gen. George Rogers Clark's memoirs we find that Vincennes had a militia composed of about 400 men by the year 1778.  . . .

The following list gives the names of counties that were created from Northwest Territory and Indiana Territory before Indiana statehood in 1816.

• St. Clair (IL) 27 Apr. 1790
• Knox 20 Jun 1790
• Randolph (IL) 5 Oct. 1795
• Wayne (MI) 15 Aug. 1796
• Clark 3 Feb. 1801
• Dearborn 7 Mar. 1803
• Harrison 11 Oct. 1808
• Jefferson 23 Nov 1810
• Franklin 27 Nov 1810
• Wayne 27 Nov 1810
• Gibson 9 Mar 1813
• Warrick 9 Mar 1813
• Washington 21 Dec 1813
• Perry 7 Sep 1814
• Posey 7 Sep 1814
• Switzerland 7 Sep 1814
• Jackson 18 Dec 1815
• Orange 26 Dec 1815

The majority of the township divisions as given in the lists of this publication do not exist in any similar form today. Very few of the names have even been retained. Where possible a general location in respect to subsequent county formations has been noted. . . . 

One section for Randolph Co., Indiana Territory (now Illinois) has been included with this compilation. Though not within the current Indiana boundaries, the value of this find and its relevance to early Indiana settlers merited its inclusion.
