Honoring
the Meigs County Historical Society and Museum on its
Sesquicentennial.
WHEREAS,
The members of the House of Representatives of the 136th General
Assembly of Ohio are pleased to congratulate the Meigs County
Historical Society and Museum on the auspicious occasion of its
One Hundred Fiftieth Anniversary, celebrated September 6, 2025;
and
WHEREAS,
Recognition of this prestigious milestone is, indeed, a fitting time
to pay tribute to the Meigs County Historical Society and Museum for
its exceptional endeavors. Organized in 1876 as the Meigs County
Pioneer and Historical Society, this fine nonprofit protects local
history and relics and conducts historical education and research
through publications, symposia, and special events, and it also
maintains a museum and a library; and
WHEREAS,
Since its inception, the Meigs County Historical Society and Museum
has striven to preserve and promote the unique history of the area.
Indeed, the organization is to be commended for its tremendous
efforts to ensure that the important details of our past are
transmitted to succeeding generations for their reflection and
appreciation; and
WHEREAS,
In this modern era, in which the durability of goods and values is
often measured in months and days rather than in years and decades,
it is not only enlightening but also satisfying to discover that some
representations of the past still stand for future generations as a
record of, and a monument to, previous achievements. The Meigs County
Historical Society and Museum has certainly made positive
contributions to our society, maintaining the rich heritage of bygone
days; therefore be it
RESOLVED,
That we, the members of the House of Representatives of the 136th
General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, salute the
Meigs County Historical Society and Museum on its One Hundred
Fiftieth Anniversary and offer best wishes for ongoing success; and
be it further
RESOLVED,
That the Clerk of the House of Representatives transmit a duly
authenticated copy of this Resolution to the Meigs County Historical
Society and Museum.
