Ohio History

A fine set of eighty-seven volumes of the Ohio Archaeological and Historical Quarterly (now Ohio History) has been given to Georgetown by Miss Isabel Blair in memory of her father, Dr. William Edward Blair, of Lebanon, Ohio. Miss Blair also gave several important books on Ohio history, including the original Hoe's Historical Collections of Ohio, published in 1847; the enlarged edition of Howe's published in 1900; Historical Atlases of Warren County, published in 1875 and 1903; and Speeches of Thomas Corwin, published in 1859. In addition to Ohio history, Miss Blair gave a rare theological volume published in 1597, an edition of the speeches of Charles Phillips published in Cincinnati in 1818, and other early volumes.
