HISTORY ROOM

The History Room is the result of collaboration between the Anderson Township Board of Trustees and the Anderson Township Historical Society.

The purpose of the room is to demonstrate the evolution of Anderson Township from pre-historic times to the present.  The room includes one of the oldest reminders of the Township’s farming and pioneer heritage from 1793 to the 1920.  The portions of the corn crib are salvaged from a structure that was constructed in 1824 and was located located at the corner of Ohio 32 and Clough Pike.

Panels guide the visitor from the Paleo-Indian Occupation (14,000 B.C. - 8,000 B.C.) thru later native American occupation periods to modern times.  The visitor can view photographs and displays that trace the early settlement of eastern immigrants from about 1790.

Old photographs and objects display township life in the 19th and 20th century.

Docent volunteers from the Society host open hours at the History Room on Sunday and Wednesday afternoons, 1 to 4 p.m., and on Tuesday evenings, 6 to 8:45 p.m.
