Wood Cunty War of 1812 bicentennial ceremony


Notice from Wood County Commissioner Tim Brown:

Tomorrow at 11:30 a.m. Wood County will be conducting a War of 1812 bicentennial ceremony on the Courthouse steps. There will be reenactors from Fort Meigs and remarks from local historian Bob Boyd. As you know our county was named for a War of 1812 hero, Col. Eleazer D. Wood, who, as a young engineer and graduate of West Point, helped plan and construct Fort Meigs. You are welcome to join us at the ceremony.
