Named in the 1883 county history

The history of Brown County was published 21 years before the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

The first fair in Brown County was held in Russellville in October, 1852, on a small lot adjoining the lot on which the Bisciple Church now stands. The officers were: Alex Campbell, President; John Glaze, Secretary; Samuel Glaze, Treasurer. The Board of Birectors were: John Williamson, of Jefferson Township; George Snedaker, of Union Township; Samuel Kerr, of Byrd Township; Absalom King, of Pleasant Township. The ring in which the stock was exhibited was made by encircling a small piece of ground with a strong rope, which was made fast to stakes driven deep into the ground. The display of vegetables, machinery and mechanical manufactures, etc., was made in the Presbyterian Church, which stood adjacent to the grounds in which the stock was shown.

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Brown County, Ohio, held by the Library of Congress. Sanborn atlases published before 1930 are in the public domain. Only names that at least three of four independent readings agreed on are published, and no spelling has been corrected: what appears here is what the recogniser returned from the ink.
