Memoirs and Selected Letters,
1839-1865
Ulysses S. Grant was born 27 April 1822 in picturesque Point Pleasant near the mouth of
Big Indian Creek at the Ohio River.
This restored one-story, three-room cottage, which was built in 1817, was next to the
tannery where Grant's father worked. The small cottage is furnished with period items. At
one time the birthplace made an extensive tour of the United States on a railroad flatcar
and was also temporarily displayed on the Ohio State fairgrounds.
LOCATION
Grant Birthplace is in Point Pleasant, in Clermont County, just off of U.S. Route 52
about five miles east of New Richmond.
