OHIO STATE ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL
SOCIETY ANNUAL REPORTS
Due to the fact that the annual meetings
of the various Ohio
educational conferences, usually held
the first week in April,
and the meetings of the Columbus
Genealogical Society and the
Committee on Medical History and
Archives were not held this
year, the annual History Conference was
cancelled for 1943 and
arrangements were made only for the
annual business meeting
of the Society, scheduled for Friday
forenoon, April 30, 1943.
Due to the small attendance, however,
chargeable largely to war
conditions, the President of the Society
declared the annual meet-
ing postponed, with the understanding
that the reports of the
Director, Secretary and Treasurer be
published as usual in the
July-September issue of the QUARTERLY.
The October-December,
1943, issue of the QUARTERLY will
contain the historical papers
which were prepared for the meeting of
the Committee on Medical
History and Archives.
REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR
It may be taken for granted that members
read the publications of
The Ohio State Archaeological and
Historical Society as well as their
local and state newspapers. In the
former, the membership is kept in-
formed as to the detailed activities of
the Society, while the press, par-
ticularly that of Columbus, has been
especially cooperative in carrying
items of a more general nature. I feel
certain that the members have been
impressed by the accomplishments of the
Society during the past twelve
months, and that there is general
recognition of the place which the or-
ganization holds in the esteem of the
people of Ohio.
Following precedent, no attempt will be
made in this brief report
to review activities in detail. Such
details are a part of the Society's
records--in the reports of the Director,
of the Secretary-Librarian and
in the departmental reports of the
various curators.
At last year's annual meeting, the
Director discussed, at some length,
the manner in which the Society planned
to meet the impact of war. This
plan was and is, in a word, continuance
of the services authorized by the
Constitution and, in addition, fullest
cooperation with Federal, State and
205

local authorities in the interest of
winning the war. That we are in a
very true sense serving as an arm of our
State government is evidenced
by a recent letter of appreciation from
the Governor of Ohio to the
President of the Society. That we
continue to be a cultural center for
the Commonwealth is evidenced by the
gratifying number of visitors to
the Museum and Library.
The following are a few of the more
important activities for the past
year:
It is logical, perhaps, to begin with
the Museum and Library build-
ing and its upkeep. Starling Eaton,
Superintendent of Maintenance, in ad-
dition to his multiple routine duties,
has had charge of the mailing and
shipping of publications, loan
collections, etc.; he has kept an inventory
of the Society's publications, which
number 100,000 as of date; he has
arranged for the training of Air Raid
wardens for the 15th and 16th
wards; he is an executive officer for
Civilian Defense, and has taken a
total of 85 hours special courses of
training in air raid and other war
emergency work.
In the Department of Archaeology,
Richard G. Morgan, Curator,
carried out field surveys and
investigations of a new prehistoric culture
in Ohio; conducted routine duties and
laboratory work, and has just com-
pleted a pretentious exhibit, The Family
Tree of Man.
In the Department of History, Dr.
William D. Overman, in addition
to his routine duties as Curator, served
as the administrative officer for
the Ohio War History Commission. Since
Dr. Overman's resignation*
Dr. Francis P. Weisenburger, of Ohio
State University, vice-chairman of
the Commission, in cooperation with the
Director and with Mrs. Ruth
J. Fischer, secretary, has conducted the
work of the commission in a most
satisfactory manner.
In the Department of Natural History,
Edward S. Thomas, Curator,
has had a busy and productive year in
collecting, cataloguing and dis-
playing specimens. He has made numerous
addresses and has contributed
many articles for publications helpful
to the Society.
In the Division of State Memorials, E.
C. Zepp and his assistant, J.
Richard Lawwill, have left nothing
undone to maintain the high degree of
development and service in the 44 State
Memorials in custody of the So-
ciety. While attendance in these areas
has decreased definitely as a result
of the war, the problem of maintaining
them in good condition has not
been reduced. Shortage of help is a
problem which is difficult to solve.
Turning now to activities of a more
general nature, it may be men-
tioned that the Society's Educational
Service has enjoyed its busiest year.
A series of radio broadcasts over
Station WOSU, for the Ohio School
of the Air, has been of weekly
occurrence through the school year. This
series, in two parts--WHAT USED TO BE,
and OHIO AT WAR--is
* See below.
ANNUAL REPORTS 207
being dramatized by Margaret Carey Tyler
from factual material fur-
nished by the Museum. The Loan Collection service to Ohio
schools
has been augmented and has come to be
one of the foremost of the
several types of service offered by the
Museum. The service to the
schools of Columbus and Franklin County
has brought some 12,000 pupils
with their teachers to the Museum for
special instruction. It may be of
interest to mention that the Society's
radio program was cited by the
Institute of Education by Radio as an
example of progress in educational
methods.
A series of short articles entitled
"This Ohio of Ours," carried in
Museum Echoes, and prepared by the several heads of departments, was
in effect a brief summarized history of
the State. A leading New York
newspaper found this feature worthy of
comment and suggested that other
states might well do something similar.
Special exhibits have been a notable
feature of the Museum's pro-
gram during the past year. These, many
of which were devised to fur-
ther the war effort, include the Know
Ohio exhibition, rare and inter-
esting manuscripts from the Society's
Library, a pretentious exhibit housed
in the War Memorial rotunda intended to depict
war today; an exhibit of
American Indian Arts and Crafts; an
exhibit of Soldier Art, and cur-
rently, an exhibition demonstrating the
part which Ohio has played in
the several wars.
Virtually every member of the
administrative staff has participated
in a program of talks and exhibits
intended for service men in the
several stations adjacent to Columbus.
Numerous talks also have been
offered to educational, social and
patriotic groups, both in the museum and
in nearby communities.
Accessions of gifts to the various
departments of the Museum have
been of unusual importance.
As might be suspected, the Staff has
lost several valuable members,
through retirement, resignation or leave
of absence. On January 1 James
S. Waite, veteran Cabinet Maker, retired
because of age. His place has been
filled by Cyril H. Webster in a most
satisfactory manner. Oliver J. Wil-
liams, Staff Photographer, resigned to
enter war production work. Pend-
ing the filling of the position, Mr.
Williams is serving part time.
H. H. Ellis, Assistant Curator of
Archaeology, resigned last Novem-
ber to accept a position in war
production. His position will not be filled,
at least for the present.
The resignation of Dr. William D. Overman, as Curator of His-
tory, is a distinct loss to the Society.
Dr. Overman recently accepted a
position as historian and archivist with
the Firestone Tire and Rubber
Company. No suitable person has been
found as yet to replace him.
Just what further losses may be suffered
as a result of the war remains,
of course, to be seen.
208 OHIO ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND
HISTORICAL QUARTERLY
The Director, on authority of the Board,
attended the mid-year
meeting of the Council of the American
Association of Museums, in New
York City in February. The Council
decided not to hold the usual Annual
Meeting this year.
Now for a brief look into the future. It
will be obvious to all that
conditions beyond the present are
unpredictable. The Society can only
hold itself in readiness to meet them as
they arise. The nearest that
we may come to certainty is the
necessity of holding ourselves in readi-
ness in order that we may contribute
fully to the reconstruction which
will follow the war--a task which even
in anticipation is stupendous.
One gratifying observation, in so far as
the Society is concerned, is the
vastly increased use of the Museum and
Library building by groups and
organizations other than our own. The
building and its facilities during
the past year have been made available
to the gas rationing boards, the
several draft registrations, the
training of air wardens and, perhaps most
important, to Civilian Defense. Numerous
educational and patriotic or-
ganizations have been accommodated, and
few days pass but that some
similar use is made of the building.
It becomes increasingly obvious that
with our central location, the
building is a definite asset to the
State University, to Columbus and to
the State of Ohio. Utilities and
conveniences even now are insufficient
to care for this increased use. The
Director takes this opportunity of
voicing the hope that these may be
forthcoming, and that in the not too
distant future an addition to the Museum
and Library building, together
with a spacious Auditorium for public
use, may be a realization rather
than a dream.
H. C. SHETRONE, Director.
REPORT OF THE SECRETARY
To THE TRUSTEES AND MEMBERS OF THE OHIO
STATE ARCHAEOLOGICAL
AND HISTORICAL SOCIETY:
The Secretary presents to the Board of
Trustees and members of
the Society his tenth annual report for
the year ending March 31, 1943,
it being the annual report for the
fifty-seventh year of the Society.
I. Secretarial Duties
In addition to the usual routine duties
of the Secretary, he has en-
gaged in a number of extra activities.
He appeared on the program of
the annual meeting of the American
Association for State and Local
History, at Richmond, Virginia, in
October. He is also a member of
the Council of this Association. He
addressed the eighth annual meet-
ing of the Champaign County Historical
Society held at Urbana and gave
the principal address at the
semi-centennial of the Wilmington, Ohio,
ANNUAL REPORTS 209
Yearly Meeting of the Society of
Friends. He has addressed three church
assemblies on the importance of the
preservation of church records. He
was in charge of one section of the
annual meeting of the American His-
torical Association, but, because of
transportation conditions, this meeting
was finally cancelled at the request of
the United States Government. He
has had occasion to give suggestions a
number of times concerning the
organization of local and county
historical societies. As chairman of the
Ohio State Executive Committee of the
Anthony Wayne Memorial As-
sociation, he has completed a
representative state-wide citizens' committee
and assisted in other ways in the
progress of this movement.
Much attention has been given by the
Secretary to the preservation
of historical material left unfinished
by the closing of the W.P.A. projects
during the year. Of particular interest
to the Society are the unpublished
materials of the Newspaper Index
project, the Calendar of the Joshua
Reed Giddings Manuscripts, the data for
a Bibliography of Ohio and the
Calendar of the Governors' Papers,
1803-1878.
Plans which were being made for a
special commemorative program
this year in honor of Henry Howe were
dropped for the duration, but
are expected to be carried out at a
later date. Due to war conditions and
travel difficulties, it was decided to
omit, during 1943, the usual Ohio
History Conference held in connection
with the Annual Meeting.
Membership
The total membership of the Society as
of April 1, 1943, was 626
as compared with 631 last year. The
present membership consists of
1 Benefactor, 2 Patrons, 321 life
members, 6 sustaining members, 16 con-
tributing members and 280 annual
members. By action of the Board of
Trustees, 1 Benefactor, 1 Patron and 2
honorary life members have been
added to the rolls during the year, on
the basis of unusual service rendered.
The Board of Trustees now has under
consideration possible plans for
increasing the active membership of the
Society.
Trustees
During the year, the Society suffered
the loss, by death, of one
Trustee, Charles H. Spencer of Newark;
Harry W. Amos, editor of The
Jeffersonian, of Cambridge, Ohio, was appointed by the Governor to
take
his place. The terms of Arthur C.
Johnson, Sr., George Florence and
Albert C. Spetnagel, elected by the
Society's members, expire at this time.
Two Board meetings were called during
the year, only one of which
had a quorum present. The other meeting
was given over to a general
discussion, of which a record was made.
At the meeting of September
26, 1942, Miss Elizabeth Williams of
Wyoming and Mrs. John M. Pat-
tison of Cincinnati were elected
honorary life members because of val-
uable contributions of manuscripts made
to the Society's Library. At the
same meeting, a record was made of the
appointment, by President John-
210
OHIO ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL QUARTERLY
son, of Dr. George W. Rightmire as a
committee of one to revise the
draft of the Constitution as approved at
the Annual Meeting in 1942,
"preserving the provisions and
spirit of its content."
II. Publications
In addition to the regular publication
of the QUARTERLY and Museum
Echoes, the major task of the division of publications has been
the com-
pletion of the editorial work on the History
of Ohio. Volume VI of this
series was delivered in December, 1942.
Volume V is in the printer's
hands and should be available in the
early summer; Volume IV (the last
in the series) has been edited and is
now ready for the printer; the major
publication project of the Society is,
therefore, expected to be completed
during 1943. Many complimentary remarks
have been expressed and every
volume has been favorably reviewed.
While it has taken six years to ac-
complish this, yet we feel that the
Society has rendered one of its most
outstanding services in this
connection. Of the 500 sets available
for
sale, only about 300 remain unsold. No
effort has yet been made to en-
gage in a publicity campaign, although
this will be done when the series
is completed. Indications are that the whole
edition will soon be ex-
hausted, and no provision has been made
for a second edition.
The Secretary is constantly receiving
more available and worthwhile
material than it is now possible to
publish, and feels that a publication
program is one of the best outlets for
an organization such as a state
historical society.
III. The Library
The Library has continued to grow in
spite of limitations due to
small appropriations. During the year,
1,836 books and pamphlets have
been added, of which number, 280 were
purchased, 1,032 were gifts, 383
were obtained through exchange, 44 were
review copies, and 97 were
pamphlets. This does not include many miscellaneous pamphlets. The
Library is receiving regularly, 266
periodicals, of which 62 are gifts, 161
are received on exchange, and 43 on
direct subscriptions.
Newspaper Department
In the Newspaper Department of the
Library, 746 volumes and 710
odd issues have been added during the
year. This department normally
receives for preservation, 139
newspapers, most of them Ohio papers;
however, during the past year, a few of
these have been discontinued,
for the present at least, because of war
conditions. The Newspaper De-
partment has been enriched during the
year by a large collection of
southern newspapers given to the
Society's Library by the Hayes Me-
morial Library, Fremont, Ohio. Another collection, consisting of Ohio
newspapers for the years 1825 to 1858,
was also secured. These, how-
ever, are not complete.
ANNUAL REPORTS 211
During the period that Robert C. Wheeler
was in charge of the
newspapers, he compiled an Index of the
first year of the Centinel of
the Northwest Territory, the first newspaper published within the limits
of Ohio (1793-1794). This Index will be
published in the July-Septem-
ber issue of the QUARTERLY.
Department of Documents
This department, created during the
year, has charge of the manu-
scripts, archives, maps, broadsides and
photostats of the Society's Library.
It represents the most valuable library
treasures of the Society and more
documentary materials have been acquired
during the past year than ever be-
fore. The collection has reached such
magnitude that it was deemed necessary
to give it more attention than in the
past, and, about the middle of the
year, Miss Bertha E. Josephson was
transferred from the Secretary's
office to take charge of this
department, retaining her duties as Editorial
Associate. Her experience and training
in historical work had prepared
her for this very important task. During
the year, 4,795 pieces of manu-
script material were accessioned. All the manuscripts accessioned have
been boxed, are now listed alphabetically
by subject in an Accessions
Catalogue and in a Cross Reference
Shelf-Catalogue. They are also
gradually being calendared.
These collections, which constitute one
of the most important phases
of the Society's work, will be given
major attention until the vast accumu-
lation of resources is organized and
made accessible to the public. Be-
cause of lack of sufficient staff
assistance this is, necessarily, a slow and
laborious process. Detailed reports concerning individual
collections are
being made in current issues of Museum
Echoes and have aroused favor-
able comment. When the work is
completed, a guide to all the materials
will be published and made available for
members, libraries, historical
societies and interested individuals.
A notable increase of interest in the
preservation and care of public
archives has been manifested during the
year, and the State Govern-
ment is beginning to realize the
importance of proper care and supervision.
It is hoped that someday, in the not too
far future, adequate housing
and servicing facilities will be
provided for the archives of the State of
Ohio.
Cataloging Department
During the year, this department has
catalogued 2,067 books and
3,357 cards have been added. In revising
the catalogue file, 164,000 cards
have been handled. Because of the lack
of sufficient staff, there are now
on the shelves, awaiting cataloging,
4,000 volumes and 3,500 process slips
for which cards have not yet been made.
The cataloging staff has been
compelled to give much time, needed for
their work, to proofreading the
Society's publications and proofreading
and indexing the History of the
State of Ohio.
212 OHIO ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND
HISTORICAL QUARTERLY
Reference Department
The demands on this department have
increased during the year,
and the staff has decreased. An added
burden placed upon the Reference
Library is the handling of inquiries
received by mail and the genealogi-
cal research work.
The Staff
During the year, there have been many
changes due to war conditions.
Harold C. O'Neal resigned early in the
year to accept a position on the
library staff of the University of
Maryland. Robert C. Wheeler was ap-
pointed Acting Newspaper Librarian in
June, but entered the Army in Oc-
tober. Arthur D. Mink, a graduate of the
Western Reserve Library School,
succeeded him in the Newspaper
Department. These changes made possible
the organization of the Documents
Department, and Miss Bertha E. Joseph-
son was transferred from the Secretary's
office to this department, continu-
ing her duties as Editorial Associate.
In the transfer, Mrs. Ardis H.
Wheeler was appointed Stenographic
Secretary to the Editor and Librarian.
So many necessary changes create quite a
problem in routine work,
but every member of the staff, old and
new, is entitled to words of com-
mendation in the way the emergency has
been met.
Miscellaneous
During the year, a large collection of
suitable books, either duplicates
or books outside the Society's
particular fields, has been contributed for the
use of soldiers and sailors in various
camps and training stations.
The movement to commemorate the services
of General Anthony
Wayne within the limits of Ohio,
1793-1795, has been further strengthened
by the creation of an official State
committee to be appointed by the Gov-
ernor of the State.
The Secretary-Librarian took the
initiative, three years ago, in a move-
ment to transfer the Records of the
Northwest Territory, stored in the
Court House of Washington County, at
Marietta, to the custody of the
State Society. A year ago, an agreement
was reached by which these
records were transferred to the Campus
Martius Memorial, and Mrs. Edith
S. Reiter, Curator of the Memorial, has
been arranging and listing them,
so that they will be available for use
by qualified persons under supervision.
The Society's Library is serving as the
permanent depository for his-
torical material collected by the Ohio
War History Commission.
The facilities for properly safeguarding
all kinds of library material
--the newspapers, books, manuscripts,
maps and archives--have been taxed
to the limit, and the only recourse
(until more space can be provided by
future building) is to store the
material--and much of it under unfavorable
conditions.
In conclusion, the Secretary would like
to make some recommenda-
tions for the consideration of the
Trustees and members of the Society.
ANNUAL REPORTS 213
While he fully realizes that these
cannot receive serious attention until the
War is over, yet he feels that a program
for future work should be care-
fully considered, so that when the
opportunity does arrive, no time will be
lost. He recommends:
1. A union list of Ohio newspapers
available in Ohio, which might
well be expanded to include Ohio
newspapers in the leading cen-
ters outside the State.
2. A union list of the manuscript
material relating to Ohio and avail-
able for research in Ohio.
3. A union list of maps relating to Ohio
and available for research
in Ohio.
4. The publication of an Ohio
Bibliography, which the Society has
already sponsored, and which is being
prepared by Dr. James H.
Rodabaugh of the research staff of the
Hayes Memorial Library.
5. A Dictionary of Ohio Biography. The
need for a set of scholarly
biographical sketches of the more
important men and women of
Ohio can hardly be denied. This should
be planned along the
lines of the Dictionary of American
Biography. It should be a
cooperative effort, handled by a
competent staff, guided by the
judgment of a state-wide committee of
qualified historians, and
edited and published under the auspices
of the Society.
The Secretary is, however, thankful for
the accomplishments which
have been possible during the year.
Respectfully submitted,
HARLOW LINDLEY,
Secretary, Editor, and Librarian.
REPORT OF THE TREASURER
Herewith is the letter of transmittal of
Mr. W. D. Wall, Certified
Public Accountant, to the Society's
Treasurer, Mr. Oscar F. Miller.
April 21, 1943.
MR. O. F. MILLER, TREASURER.
DEAR SIR:
The annual audit of the books of account
of the Ohio State Archaeo-
logical and Historical Society for the
year ended December 31, 1942, has
been completed. Presented herewith is
our report. From the schedule of
the Society's Receipts and Disbursements
it will be found that the total of
receipts collected during the year was
$5,360.55, less advances refunded and
bequests in the amount of $1,563.17
which leaves a total of $3,797.38 from
revenue sources as compared with
$2,967.22 for the year 1941, an increase
of $930.16 (this increase is again due
entirely to the sale of the History of
the State of Ohio).
214
OHIO ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL QUARTERLY
Total disbursements from Society Funds
amounted to $4,231.66; less
non-revenue disbursements totalling
$1,079.33, leaving a total of expenses
paid from Society Funds of $3,152.33.
The excess of revenue receipts over
expenses paid from Society Funds for the
year 1942 was $645.05.
Included in the above income was $30.00
of interest on Certificates of
Deposit from the Hamilton Kline Memorial
Fund which was credited to
the checking account carried at the
Bolivar State Bank, Bolivar, Ohio. No
expenditures were made from this account
during the year. The fund has
a balance of $2,366.79. The Depositor's
claim for $437.03 against the
Bolivar State Bank remained unchanged
during the year.
The Statement of Receipts and
Disbursements of commissary opera-
tions in many of the State Memorials
shows total receipts of $11,008.15, as
compared with $17,696.72 for 1941, a
decrease of $6,688.57. Expenditures
for the year in connection with
operations were $5,857.36, as compared with
$12,546.40 for 1941, a decrease of
$6,689.04. From this fund the Society
also disbursed $5,995.26 for equipment,
improvements and betterments and
$893.07 in cash advances. The balance at
December 31, 1942, was $3,381.88.
The total of State Legislative
Appropriations was $138,500.00 with a
$19,959.24 balance brought forward from
1941, making a total of $158,459.24.
Of this amount $6,058.04 remained
unexpended, leaving $152,401.20 total
expenditures during the year. In
comparison with 1941 this is a decrease
in expenditures of $17,123.32. Included
in the expenditures from state ap-
propriations was the sum of $18,762.64
for additions and betterments for
Fort Hill, Fort Ancient, Campus Martius,
Cedar Swamp and the Garfield
House.
During the year the Society was in
receipt of a gift of $783.84 from
Trustee Albert C. Spetnagel for the
construction of a museum at Mound
City. The entire amount was expended.
The books of the Society were found in
excellent condition and in
balance and the several fund balances,
as stated herein, are supported by bank
statements, savings pass books, bonds
and certificates of deposit.
Respectfully submitted,
W. D. WALL,
Certified Public Accountant.
