2050 - STORY OF THE MAUMEE VALLEY and therein the Methodists and United Brethren held services. Locust Point is in Carroll township. Carroll was named for a prominent early settler who established himself among the French. Another account says that the first settlement was made by Canadian French in 1814, at the close of the War of 1812 ; that they were for the most part trappers and hunters and Indian traders. Thus it was not until 1830-32, that a farming and improving class came, in the persons of such men as John McNutt, Francis P. McNutt and Henry Stultz from the settlements about Lower Sandusky (Fremont). Galbreath Stewart from Greensbury, Sandusky County, established himself in this vicinity about the same time. It was several years, however, before the Indians and French trappers abandoned their huts and camping grounds. DANBURY TOWNSHIP This township as stated was within the "Fire Lands," the early settlers coming from Connecticut, hence the name. It originally included Put-in-Bay (South Bass) Kelley's Island and Catawba, but was reduced to its present limits in 1861. An early writer also speaks of the prehistoric mounds on the Peninsula, naming a mound on the northwest of Catawba Island "west of the old Mores dock." The mound of stone on "Sugar Rock" is also spoken of. The writer of this history never knew of this rock mound until he discovered it himself while on a "bird tour" some years ago. The story of the first years of the Danbury and Peninsular section also the islands, has been given in the general article on Ottawa County. Lakeside and the village of Marblehead are told about elsewhere. After the War of 1812, most of the few settlers returned to their home on the Peninsula, or where their destroyed homes had been. In 1815, Col. Peter P. Ferry, settled on the Peninsula. He had been an officer in the army of Napoleon, and was the first acting. collector of the port of Sandusky, located at Venice. Samuel Lockwood, Samuel Schribner, and Alfred Richards, the latter from Canada, located in Danbury township in 1816-17. John Kelley of Kelley's Island, cast his fortunes with the main land in 1832. Truman Pettybone was the first justice of the peace in Danbury township, and was deputy collector of Sandusky port. The Methodists built a church here in 1860, and Rev. Thomas Guard was the pioneer preacher. A schoolhouse was built and school opened in 1833. TOLEDO AND THE SANDUSKY REGION - 2051 ERIE TOWNSHIP Erie township, triangular in form has a lake shore line of over eight miles. It was organized in 1844, with David Merion, a trustee; James Kirk, collector; Luff Hull, justice of the peace. Kirk and Marion settled in now Erie township in 1828. A few years later the settlement rapidly increased. About 1836 a colony of the Society of Friends (Quakers) came from Maryland, among whom were : Abraham Bell, William Brown, James Bailey, William Archibald, Caleb Alden, and Roger, Timothy, John, Nathan, Elisha and Iminer Kirk. John and Henry Snyder, Joel Sylvester, George Kleinhaus, Luff Hull and William Carr came to this section in 1830. The first school in the township was held in the home of Luff Hull. Miss Knight, a teacher, who later was a Mrs. Kingdom of Port Clinton, received as pay seventy-five cents a week and "boarded around." The first schoolhouse, in the township, of logs, was built in 1841. The nearest mill in these early days was Venice (Erie County) twenty-two miles by water. The first set-tlers sometimes swam their horses and ferried their wagons and grain over Mud Creek and Portage River and took their "grists" to Lower Sandusky (Fremont) instead of Venice. CATAWBA ISLAND TOWNSHIP This township and Put-in-Bay township, originally composed what was known as Van Renssellaer township. When the township was divided, this section was changed to Catawba Island township. Trappers roamed this section early in the eighteenth century. With the Indians, the French-Canadians were here during the Revolutionary period. As early as 1795, these half-breeds became more permanently established, building huts and occupying hunting grounds. They opened up small gardens and planted apple trees along the lakeshore. A famous early half-breed trapper and trader was Jacob King. Of the French, there was M. La Fleur, Poskelle, Bebau, Gorneau, and others. The first permanent settlers came about 1836. From the east arrived Walter and Ashler Bardsley, Wheeler Porter, Eli M. Obdic, Chauncy Tillotson and Henry Ellithorp; most of them with their families. The first schoolhouse was built in 1838. An early church was 2052 - STORY OF THE MAUMEE VALLEY of the Methodist denomination and Elder Beaty was one of the pioneer preachers. The first to embark in the grape culture of this famous Cataw-ba section were H. Newton and H. Ellithorp. They began production in 1860 and in 1871 there were 345 acres in vineyards in the township with a vintage of 900,200 pounds of grapes and in addition to the fruit sold there were 40,253 gallons of wine made. Three years later there were over 600 acres of vineyards growing. Peach culture is now a large factor in Catawba, the "island" fruits being among the finest grown in the county. For years both the still and sparkling wines were made in large quantities. The Catawba Wine Company at one time had a cellar with a 130,000 gallon capacity and Gideon S. Owens had a cellar with a capacity of 40,000 gallons. A large section of Catawba has been developed into summer homes where the owners spend the milder season of the year and where there are golf links and other means for pleasure and recreation. Then there is the "Rock Ledge" colony below Port Clinton, in a beautiful situation overlooking Lake Erie, besides several other colonies about the island, populated by summer residents. PORT CLINTON Port Clinton was surveyed and platted in 1828 by O. M. Spencer, E. S. and E. H. Haines, and General Lytle, and others, mostly Cincinnati promoters. The streets are regularly laid out and most of them are one hundred feet wide. East and West Market Places are one-hundred and fifty feet in width. Public squares were reserved for school and county buildings. Situated at the mouth of the Portage River, Port Clinton has a good harbor which admits boats of considerable draft. The village was incorporated November 13, 1842, two years after the county was formed. Wm. G. Green was the first mayor ; S. O. Correll, recorder (clerk) ; J. W. Sylvester, David D. Dayton, Wm. L. Cole and Alexander Borden, the first trustees (councilmen). The first courthouse, a square structure, two stories, costing $10,000 was built in 1840, the year the county was organized. Additions were made later and the two buildings joined with a two story structure with a cupola. When the proposition for a new courthouse came up, it also revived the old question of the location of the county seat. In the winter of 1897-98 Oak Harbor interests endeavored to secure the passage of a bill in the legislature, submitting the question of the removal of the county seat to Oak Harbor, to a vote. The bill failed of passage, but the question 2054 - STORY OF THE MAUMEE VALLEY of building a new courthouse at Port Clinton was submitted to the voters of the county and carried. The construction of the present substantial stone courthouse settled the question. The first church, known as Christy Chapel, was built by the Methodists in 1842. The church organizations and churches of Port Clinton in 1929 were the Methodist Episcopal, Episcopalian, United Brethren, Lutheran and Immaculate Conception Catholic. The first schoolhouse, built in 1838, was of logs, and stood on the east side of Madison Street, near the old town hall. J. W. Sylvester is named as the first school teacher in Portage township. The first brick high school building was erected in 1874 at a cost of $15,000. Additions were made later and a fine new structure was occupied a few years since. Port Clinton has from its early years been a prosperous, thriving town. The growing little city has all the modern municipal conveniences, all lines of business are well represented, there is abroad a most commendable public spirit backed by several wide-awake civic organizations of large memberships. Port Clinton has the largest "stock cruiser" boat manufacturing concern in the world. The Matthews Company was established in 1889 and while always doing- a successful business, five years ago they began the manufacture of stock, high-speed cruisers, with their cruising yachts building. They now make two sizes and ten models of "stock cruisers," ranging in price from $8,000 to $18,000. The year ending in July, 1929, they did a business total-ing over two million dollars. Port Clinton is one of the large fish markets on the Great Lakes and also handles a large volume of the county's fruit production—especially peaches. It is still an important fur market, including muskrats. It is on the main east and west line of the New York Central, and the Toledo-Marblehead electric line, operated by The Ohio Public Service Company. The population is some under 3,000. OAK HARBOR Oak Harbor, one of Ottawa County's prosperous towns, is located on the main line of the New York Central railroad, the Wheeling & Lake Erie, and the Toledo-Marblehead electric line, operated by the Ohio Public Service Company. It has a population of approximately 2,500. As first platted it was named Hartford. One of the first settlers was Adolphus Kramer, one of Ottawa County's best known earlier citizens. TOLEDO AND THE SANDUSKY REGION - 2055 In the earlier years the principal business of the town was lumbering; from the fact that there were great quantities of fine timber along the Portage River in that section. There were quantities of large oak, fine for ship-building. This fact and the location having a river harbor, gave the place its name. In the years around 1874, the old firm of Rosa, Milander & McGrath, alone, exported on an average of four million staves annually and some two million circular headings. Large forces of men worked the forest for ship timber, and sawmills and wood-working factories were busy the year around. With the land cleared, agriculture and fruit production has taken the place of the lumber trade. There is yet a considerable annual fur catch in this territory, especially muskrats; although "farming" the latter animals is now a paying business. With up-to-date merchants and a fine class of citizens, Oak Harbor is counted one of the fine residential villages south of old Erie. This locality was early settled by Lutherans, and of the five churches in Oak Harbor, three are Lutherans—St. John's, St. Paul's and Grace Lutheran, the former having. a school. The oth-er churches are the Methodist Episcopal and St. Boniface's Catholic. Among the leading business institutions are The Emery Thierwechter Company, grain and seeds, with large elevators, and The Bauch Company, department store. The Ottawa Basket Company manufactures baskets for the fruit trade. L. L. Cartsenson, in 1929 was the mayor of Oak Harbor. ELMORE In a beautiful situation, mostly on the right bank of the Portage River, lies the thriving town of Elmore, one of the old community settlements on the river. It was platted in February, 1851 and the position for the incorporation of Elmore was filed April 26, 1864, and granted June 27, 1864. The petitioners were Theodore Helbing, Geo. Eslebe, Geo. Frohne, Aeber Shafer, Osman F. Cheney, Louis Pierce, Geo. Pofingston, John Eoff, Harvey W. Jenney, Fred Tyler, Joseph Hunter, Geo. Sauerwein, Wm. Rymers, Jacob Edinger, Jacob Soleven, C. R. Myers, E. M. Beach, Henry Schaefer, Herman Zoch, David Gibbs, Joseph Madnow, John Yost, Wm. Moore, Daniel Ulmer, Wm. Caldwell, Geo. Wright, Chas. A. Bleher, Wm. Sanders, Wm. Lachmiller, John Emick, J. H. Magee, Samuel Decker, Godfrey Jaeger, Eli Eoff, Adam Bachman, John B. Luckey, Jacob Stole, 2056 - STORY OF THE MAUMEE VALLEY W. W. Kelley, Ferd Wilson, T. D. Thatcher, D. M. Day, R. T. Chafin, Geo. W. Keightley. The first mayor was W. W. Atkins. Regarding the three bridges at Elmore, Mr. Frank E. Holtcamp, before the present fine concrete structure was in place, wrote as follows in the Elmore Tribune of August 26, 1926: "The first bridge within the memory of a few was a wooden structure * * * In the year 1867, the old wooden bridge was dis-placed by one constructed of iron—a two-span bridge, of the 'rain-bow' type, with long semi-circle side rails. The long trestle ap- MASONIC TEMPLE, ELMORE proaches were also removed and the bridge was supported by stone abutments. "This old bridge witnessed three tragedies which occurred within the memory of the writer. The first was on a cold wintry night when a team of horses hitched to a bobsled plunged off the right side of the north abutment onto the frozen river fifteen feet below, carrying with it to instant death the driver, a citizen of Woodville, who had lost his way. "The second tragedy occurred some years later when a man walked off the southeast corner of the bridge, meeting instant death also. The third tragedy was to the bridge itself, in the year 1882, when the heavy flow of ice lifted both spans from the abut-ments, carrying the south span about a hundred rods down the TOLEDO AND THE SANDUSKY REGION - 2057 river, from where it was removed and suspended across the Portage three and a half miles east of Elmore, and where this span is still in use, having been known all these years as "Long's bridge." The north span had collapsed almost immediately after leaving the abutments. "In the south abutment there still is the old stone tablet placed there by the builders in 1867. Upon this tablet is carved : Built in 1867 M. HUNT, G. ELSABA, J. LONG, Builders J. W. LONG,J. VALENTINE, J. BROWER, Commissioners. "In the year 1883, following the great flood which had es-tablished a new high-water mark, the abutments were raised three feet and the present structure placed thereon. This. bridge bears the names of Lee Whitmore, H. Hanson, and P. Andrews, as commissioners. Lee Whitmore was a resident of Elmore and father of Edward Whitmore, still a resident of 'piety hill.' " An old resident stated that "About forty feet west of the river bridge, there was a dam across the river constructed of heavy oak hewn timbers, and from this dam ran a 'mill race,' crossing Toledo Street at the foot of the hill, and down to a sawmill on the highland of the river basin behind the residence now owned by Henry Burmann. The water in the mill race, after serving to turn the water wheel in this mill, flowed on down and emptied into the river again at a point near the old cemetery. "The old sawmill, was built by James Rice, was destroyed by fire and rebuilt. In the late fifties it was purchased by Caldwell & Sharp who operated it for some years. The building was a frame structure. "About a hundred and fifty feet east of the wagon bridge there was an island of about one and a half acres, thickly timbered with large sycamores and oaks, but within a few years after the timber was taken from the island the waters washed the island complete-ly away." As stated in the sketch of Harris township, Elmore's first church, built in 1840 by the United Brethren Society, stood on the site of the present Masonic Temple, one of the prides of El-more. Portage Lodge No. 351 F. & A. M., was instituted in 1864 and the first record of any meetings was a special communication held at Elmore November 1, that year. The lodge was char- 2058 - STORY OF THE MAUMEE VALLEY tered April 16, 1865. The charter members were David Gibbs, John H. Magee, Henry Schafer, Samuel Williams, Henry Gates, N. O. Withy, H. W. Jenny, Theodore Helbing, George A. Uncapher and E. M. Beach. The United Brethren Church property was purchased in December, 1923, and the old structure by a miraculous feat in ar-chitecture, was made into one of the most delightful Masonic Temples in the country. Every member of the lodge did his part in bringing the task to a successful conclusion, but upon the shoulders of Frank E. Holtcamp, rested the great architectural burden so delightfully worked out. Elmore's churches are the Grace Lutheran, German Lutheran, Church of Christ, Church of God, Methodist Episcopal, German Methodist and St. John's Evangelical. School facilities are excellent. All lines of business are represented by a sterling. class of merchants and financial affairs of Elmore are in good condition. In the village is an old hotel, the cupalo of which once housed a bell with an interesting history. The proprietor of the pioneer hotel of Perrysburg, Ohio, the Spafford Exchange, had a bell cast and hung it in a tree near the tavern to call his guests to their sumptuous meals. It was so interesting to the Indians of that vicinity that they stole the bell one night and started with it towards the Lower Sandusky (Fremont) section. A posse followed in pursuit and overtaking the Indians by the sound of the bell, discovered they had tied it on the neck of a pony and were having great fun with their prize. The pony was shot, the In-dians were dispersed, the bell recovered and later found lodgment in the Elmore tavern. It now is a valued relic near its old environment at Perrysburg. GENOA Genoa, one of Ottawa County's prosperous towns was surveyed and platted in September, 1854. The first mayor was Torbel Taylor ; the mayor in 1929 is L. K. Chambers. Genoa is located in one of the richest agricultural sections of the county, besides in the midst of the lime belt. The U. S. Gypsum Company has an extensive plant in the edge of the village and her business men are thrifty and prosperous. The first bank in Ottawa County, now out of existence, was established in Genoa in June, 1872, with Henry Habbler, president and H. Raucamp, cashier. TOLEDO AND THE SANDUSKY REGION - 2059 The old hotels were the "Genoa House" and "Franklin House." Shipping facilities are furnished by the east and west main line of the New York Central, the Lake Shore Electric, and the electric line from Toledo to Marblehead. The churches are the Methodist Episcopal, Church of Christ, Evangelical, and Catholic. Genoa has just completed a fine new central school building costing $160,000 which shows the enterprise and thrift of the community. The population of the town is about 1,400. Marblehead, a prosperous community, is located in the section of Ottawa County early settled and already written about extens-ively. Its citizens are a thrifty, diligent class worthy of the tradition of the locality in which they live. Other villages and hamlets of the county are Rocky Ridge, Clay Center, Curtice, Graytown, Martin, Elliston and La Came. OTTAWA COUNTY SCHOOLS The schools of Ottawa county are well systematized and in fine working condition. The county superintendent of schools is Prof. A. O. Dehn, who has held that position ever since the present county system has been in force. The first grade high schools are —Genoa, Elmore, Oak Harbor, Lakeside and Put-in-Bay. The second grade high schools are Erie township and LaCarne. The last high school enrollment was 613 for the county. Port Clinton has the only separately controlled schools in Ottawa County, not under county supervision. The schools of the county are manned by superintendents of known thoroughness and ability. OTTAWA COUNTY BANKS The business interests of Ottawa County are ably cared for by its well distributed banking institutions, in the hands of experienced men of finance worthy of their calling. At Port Clinton the county seat is the American Bank, an institution of long standing, and the National Bank of Port Clinton. Of the former institution in 1929, George A. True, a man prominent in the af-fairs of Port Clinton and an attorney known throughout Ohio, is president ; R. Hagel, vice president and G. F. Meyer, cashier. Of the National Bank of Port Clinton, Charles H. Graves, widely known in public affairs and of the firm of Graves & Duff, attorneys, is president; James A. Hopflinger, vice president and Wm. E. Irwin, cashier. Elmore, one of the old and yet progressive towns of northwest 2060 - STORY OF THE MAUMEE VALLEY Ohio, is served by two solid institutions—The First National Bank of Elmore and The Bank of Elmore. The president of the First National is A. R. Dolph, vice president, G. P. Fulkert, and E. H. Meyer, cashier. Mr. Meyer has grown up with the institution and has a wide financial acquaintance. The prosperous town of Oak Harbor is well cared for in a financial way by the First National Bank and the Oak Harbor State Bank. The president of the First National is August Kuebler, Jr.; vice president, William Lipstraw, ; and cashier, William Zimmerman, all men of affairs. Of the State Bank, A. L. Spitzer, a well known financier is president, William Roose, vice president, and L. E. Meyer, well known in banking circles, cashier. At the thriving town of Genoa is the Genoa Banking Company of which C. N. Hansen is president, J. C. Bowman and G. F. Bowman, vice presidents and E. G. Bowland, widely known in the community, cashier. At Marblehead is the Marblehead Banking Company which also serves the business community of Lakeside. Louis St. Marie is president of the institution, H. G. Gulau, vice president and J. F. Graves, cashier, all men closely identified with the business affairs of the peninsula. NEWSPAPERS As in other departments, Ottawa County is well represented by live enterprising newspapers, all issued weekly. At Port Clinton was published the Republican by the late A. G. Winnie and the Herald by James A. Faus. Sometime ago both plants were purchased by Thomas Maxwell of Fremont and consolidated as the Republican-Herald. After a short period the paper was purchased by Wm. A. Krupp, an experienced newspaper publisher who is now both editor and proprietor. The News-Democrat is edited and published by that veteran in the field William Althoff, well known by the fraternity of Northwestern Ohio. The following from the Progressive Times of July 4, 1929, tells its own story : "As Progressive Times we enter our thirteenth year with this issue, the first number having made its appearance July 4, 1917. "As a newspaper, however, this week marks the beginning of volume forty and the close of its thirty-ninth year. A Mr. Lenz TOLEDO AND THE SANDUSKY REGION - 2061 established it in 1890 as the Oak Harbor Germania. When purchased seven months later by the late S. Kuesthardt, the name was changed to the Ottawa County Zeitung, under which it was con-tinued until July 4, 1917, when we declared our independence by changing it from a German to an English newspaper, and the name to Progressive Times. The name was naturally chosen, as our job department had been conducted under the name of Progressive Printery and Times being the English meaning of the word Zeitung. "During its thirty-nine years of existence Progressive Times has had only three editors, the Mr. Lenz, for seven months, S. Kuesthardt for thirty-one years, and since the close of September, 1921, it has had as its editor his daughter, Miss Martha E. Kuesthardt. "While as a German newspaper it held a great place in the many homes throughout the county which it entered it holds an equally important place as the Progressive Times, especially so in its own community, Port Clinton." At Genoa is the Genoa Gazette in its seventh year. In 1924 the plant was purchased by H. E. Young, a hustling young news gatherer with daily experience at Columbus and in Toledo. The associate editor is E. L. Young, who is the publisher's wife. Their slogan is "Your Home Town Paper" and with surroundings as fine as found in the county, they issue a well patronized weekly. Elmore has The Tribune, started in 1900 by J. F. Foulke. Frank E. Holtcamp, who later became the publisher and proprietor, started to set type on the paper on St. Patrick's day that year. He made 208 mistakes in his first galley, but soon had the record of setting a full galley in two and a half hours without an error. The present owner and editor of the paper is James B. Gemberling. The Peninsular News of Marblehead, also representing the Lakeside and surrounding. communities, is in the midst of its fourteenth year. It is a consolidation of the Peninsular Press, established in 1901, and the Lakeside Courier, launched in 1907. The editor and publisher is W. T. Braithwaite. One of the leading papers of the county is the Ottawa County Exponent, established in 1871, published at Oak Harbor by the Exponent Publishing Company. D. A. Kreamer, an able newspaper man is at the helm and keeps Oak Harbor strictly on the map as well as Ottawa County. 2062 - STORY OF THE MAUMEE VALLEY THE ISLAND GROUP What is commonly known as the Put-in-Bay Island group is mostly a part of and under the jurisdiction of Ottawa County. The list is as follows: South Bass or Put-in-Bay 1,500 acres Middle Bass--Floral Island 750 acres North .Bass—Isle of St. George 750 acres Rattlesnake Island 60 acres Sugar Island 30 acres Green Island--U. S. Gov't. Lighthouse 20 acres Ballast Island 10 acres Gibraltar 8 acres Starve Island—Glacial Isle 2 acres PUT-IN-BAY TOWNSHIP All the islands above listed are in Put-in-Bay Township. These islands were either named by sailors, settlers, or their first owners. The three Bass Islands were once known as the "Three Sisters" and Kelley's Island was called "Cunningham's." Put-in-Bay was not named from Perry's victory, as it is so referred to in surveys long before the battle of 1813. The name evidently comes from the fact that ships could put into the bay there during or before storms, or for other reasons. The earliest or first owner of South Bass was Judge Ogden Edwards. It is stated that early in 1811, Seth Done, of Euclid, Cuyahoga County, as agent for Judge Edwards, located there. A number of laborers were brought in, who under Done's direc-tion cleared over one hundred acres which was sown to wheat. They had harvested and were threshing the wheat when the Brit-ish soldiers drove them off the island in the fall of 1812, destroyed the wheat and later destroyed some 2,000 bushels on the Peninsula at the time of the raids there. After the War of 1812 and Perry's victory, another man took charge of Edward's affairs at Put-in-Bay. His name was Shell Johnson and he remained there three years. After Johnson left, a Captain Hill next settled there but remained only a short time, when Mr. W. Hyde occupied the island. He brought on 500 head of sheep purchased by Edwards. Judge Edwards died about 1830 and his brother Alfred Edwards became the owner of South and Middle Bass. John Pierpont was put in charge of the property and in 1831 built two docks; one was in the harbor and the other was known as the west dock. TOLEDO AND THE SANDUSKY REGION - 2063 In 1836, Pierpont and two Frenchmen, started in a sailboat for Sandusky when a storm came up, their boat capsized and the three were drowned. The following year Jacob Scott of Buffalo, New York, came on and assumed charge of the premises, taking off timber, and wood for steamboats. He built more dockage and otherwise improved the island facilities. It was in 1838 that the celebrated J. D. Rivera St. Jergo, a Spanish merchant from New York visited the islands and became impressed with their facilities for sheep raising and fruit culture. He later purchased South Bass and Middle Bass from Alfred Edwards, also bought Sugar Island, Ballast and Gibraltar, all for the sum of $44,000. The sheep proposition did not prove as profitable a venture as was hoped and in 1858, Rivera with Phillip Vroman, Lewis Harmes, Lawrence Miller, and others, began grape culture on a large scale. When Rivera began to sell parts of South Bass, Phillip Vroman purchased the first farm, and later the same year Lewis Harmes bought a portion of the island, W. Rehberg and John Lutz also buying portions. Mr. Harmes was really the leader in start-ing the grape industry there, and in 1871 more than one-fourth of the lands in Put-in-Bay Township were devoted to grape culture. The Bass Islands took their name from the great quantities of fish of that name found in the surrounding waters. It is said a man marooned on Starve Island, starved to death, hence its name. Ballast Island is named from the fact that off this island Commodore Perry anchored his fleet and took in ballast the day before his engagement with the British. Green Island, whereon was constructed a lighthouse, was purchased by the government from Judge Edwards. The islands were not United States lands, as has been noted, the title of purchase coming from the Connecticut "Fire Sufferers." Wine products of the islands became widely known and in the island cellars were two wine casks, each holding 16,000 gallons, among the largest in the world. For years Put-in-Bay as a summer resort was largely patronized and excursionists in season in large numbers visit the place made famous by Commodore Perry. The beauty of the bay situation with the surrounding islands is unsurpassed and Middle Bass and other islands have their private club houses and cottages visited annually by their owners and guests. Perry's Cave, a subterranean cavern some 200 feet long and 2064 - STORY OF THE MAUMEE VALLEY 150 feet wide, with its stalactites and stalagmites and its lake of crystal water of unknown depth, at the farther end, is the prin-cipal underground way of the island. The original burial place of the American and British naval officers killed in the battle of Lake Erie is still modestly marked, but the most notable feature of the islands which sheds its light over the entire field and even distant into the main land is the Perry's Victory Memorial. Pro-nounced the world's greatest monument, briefly summed, it was "erected by the United States Government and the States of Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, New York, Rhode Island, Kentucky and Massachusetts, commemorating the Battle of Lake Erie, September 10, 1813 ; American heroism in the War of 1812 and a century of peace between English speaking peoples, and dedicated to the principle of international peace by arbitration and disarmament. Height, 352 feet; construction, Milford granite; diameter at base, 45 feet, at neck, 351/2 feet; thickness of walls at base, 9 feet, 9 inches, at neck, 5 feet; diameter of ro-tunda, 261/2 feet Open air promenade protected by 5 foot parapet at top, reached by elevator. Cost in excess of $1,000,000." Put-in-bay with a resident island population of about four hundred, has a municipal government and was incorporated in 1876. The first mayor by state appointment was V. Doller, and the first mayor chosen by election was Andrew Hunker. For many years and in 1929, the head of municipal affairs was a long-time resident of the island, T. B. Alexander. Speaking of the island group, James Smith who was with the Indians in the Ohio section from 1756 to 1759 wrote that "these islands lie on a line across the lake, and are just in sight of each other. Some of the Wyandots or Ottawas frequently make their winter hunt on these islands, though excepting wild fowl and fish, there is scarcely any game here but raccoons, which are amazingly large and fat; they feed upon the wild rice which grows in abundance in wet places around these islands. It is said that each hunter in the winter will catch one thousand raccoons. These islands are seldom visited because early in the spring and late in the fall it is dangerous sailing in their bark canoes; and in the summer they are so infested with various kinds or serpents (but chiefly rattlesnakes) it is dangerous landing." Gibraltar, so named on account of its high bluffs and rocky composition, and which plays its part in enclosing the waters of the bay harbor, has been made famous by Jay Cooke, the Civil war financier, who made the island his summer home and built TOLEDO AND THE SANDUSKY REGION - 2065 thereon his celebrated "castle." During the War of 1812 this island was fortified. A spot on the overhanging bluff on the lake side is named "Perry's Lookout" where it is said the Commodore stationed his sentinels to watch for the British fleet. On the morning of September 10th the watchfulness was rewarded. Bar-clay's location was discovered and the world knows the result. One formation on the shore line is known as "Lover's Cave" into which a canoe can float. Another formation plainly visible as the harbor is entered, is the "Needle's Eye" a square passage-way on the waterline through the limestone projection. Gibraltar is now the property of the Ohio State University where the insti-tution has built an extensive laboratory for biological research and the study of the flora and fauna of that region, the old "castle" being used as a sort of dormitory. Where now this research work is carried on, it is told that it was the habit of Jay Cooke in his lifetime to entertain in season large numbers of worthy ministers of the various Christian faiths. He would invite ten at a time for a term of two weeks, two members from five different denominations, generally selecting men with meagre salaries rather than preachers of prominence. When his guests departed he would quietly pass over checks to them to pay the expenses of their coming and going. LAKESIDE Within Ottawa County on the lake and about eight miles below Port Clinton and across the bay from Sandusky lies the resort of Lakeside, known as "the Chautauqua of the Great Lakes." It was established in 1873, in a beautiful forest, contains about 175 acres and is operated by The Lakeside Company, connected with the Methodist Episcopal Church. All profits must go into improvements and development. The organization with a capital stock of $20,000 was formed in Toledo, June 21, the above named year, the first directors being J. W. Hiett, E. W. Lenderson, George Vogel, L. M. Skidmore, C. A. Croninger, B. H. Jacobs and S. R. Gill. The officers chosen were J. W. Hiett, president; S. R. Gill, secretary; B. H. Jacobs, treasurer. The first seasons were passed under very strict regulations which have gradually broadened until the greatest freedom for healthful enjoyment and recreation is permitted. Briefly recited the situation is this : Seven hundred modern summer homes; four hundred per-manent residents ; six comfortable hotels; seven moderately 2066 - STORY OF THE MAUMEE VALLEY priced cafeteries; local Methodist Church; Centralized High School; grade school ; local newspaper and print shop ; attractive stores and shops; electric light and power ; water works under expert supervision, supplying filtered, tested water; sewage system with modern disposal plant; beautiful lake front parks ; up-to-date camping ground ; dock extending six hundred feet into Lake Erie with daily boats to all points. Sports and recreation supervised by experts : Swimming from main dock ; life guard and swimming instructor ; bathing at Sandy Beach and at Lake Front; tennis courts with annual tournaments; cement horseshoe courts with annual tournaments; Roque Club, affiliated with National Roque Association—annual tournament; row boats and canoes; speed boat rides and boat excursions; fishing in the harbors, at the reefs, or off the main dock; play ground for children; athletic field ; kindergarten; bowling alleys; hikes for boys and girls ; croquet courts; golf at Catawba ; shuffleboard. A fine new auditorium was opened in 1929, where appear the best Chautauqua attractions and other entertainments. The first post office on the Peninsula was at the home of H. F. Coffin on the Bay Shore. It was established in 1867, or thereabouts, and Mr. Coffin's mother, Mrs. Susan J. Coffin was the postmistress. Mr. Coffin carried the mail overland from Danbury. All Lakeside and Marblehead patrons walked or drove over to the Bay Shore for their mail. In the spring of 1880, A. I. Clemons became postmaster, and the office was moved to the Clemons' Stone House at Marblehead. The mail was carried to and from Lakeside by messenger. One such messenger was a lad named Ralph Parlette, who has since become well known as a lyceum editor and lecturer. The first post office at Lakeside was opened late in 1880 in the Lakeside Company's Store with Mr. James A. Aiken as post-master. CAMP PERRY Camp Perry, Ottawa County, was founded in 1906 when the site was selected by Gen. A. B. Critchfield, a former Adjutant General of Ohio National Guard. It contains nearly 1500 acres, owned by the state of Ohio, excepting a small area which was leased from the government. TOLEDO AND THE SANDUSKY REGION - 2067 The troops of the Ohio National Guard are brought here annually for their summer training schedules, and this camp is said to be one of the best state camps in the union. There are rifle ranges, among the finest in the world, which have a composite firing line of nearly one mile in length. It is here the national rifle matches are held annually, and also infernational rifle and pistol matches. The camp becomes a city of tents each summer with a popu-lation from 3,000 to 6,000 according to the encampment or the extent of the national rifle and pistol matches. The land when first acquired consisted of farms and much low lands, which have been dyked in and improved with the best of sanitary conditions, electric lights and water supply. The new buildings being erected are of the permanent type of structure, and it is planned so as to care for an entire division for encampment if necessary.
