Darke County History, Washington's Birthday, Quilt of Valor, Union Protests Come to Ohio & More

Hi everyone,

The following have been posted today, Feb. 22, at County News Online:

From the Editor

It’s George Washington’s birthday today. Anyone notice? Anyone have a clue when Abraham Lincoln’s birthday was? Frankly, I’m not sure what other presidents are supposed to be honored on President’s Day, but I think we’ve diluted the importance of the days that should be honoring the Father of our Country and the tortured man who saved it some 60 years later. Today’s blog on Pres. Washington’s birthday is worthwhile reading. Also, if you are interested in history, our lead story, Down on the Farm, is a great read.
