Along with my childhood memories of holiday gatherings at my grandparents’ house, camping out in the backyard with cousins, and playing with the many pets they shared their home with over the years, I have recollections of studying the family tree and coats of arms that hung along the stairway, holding the spoon made by our ancestor, silversmith Daniel Van Voorhis (1751- 1824), and looking at lots and lots of family photographs. For some of the photographs, my grandmother had names for and stories about the people. For others, she didn’t, but we nevertheless found them fascinating and worth keeping.

  • Erie County 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan 39 CHAPTER 4. REGIONAL PROFILE Introduction: Since the Next US Census Will Not B
    CHAPTER 4. REGIONAL PROFILE Introduction: Since the next US Census will not be completed until 2020, much of the data reported in this and other sections of the document are from the 2010 US Census. However, in some cases more recent data was found through the American Community Survey (ACS) which is a nationwide survey completed by the Census Bureau. Unless otherwise noted the 2010 Census and the 2012 American Community Survey (ACS) five year survey were utilized when referring to the Census or ACS. It is also important to note, the Ohio Department of Development (ODOD) county level population control totals will be reflected in the final adopted Transportation Plan and air quality conformity determination and associated travel demand modeling procedures. Any variation from the ODOD county level population control totals, for the Transportation Plan and Conformity Determination will require substantial documentation, including interagency consultation. ODOD population control totals are not required for transportation and land use alternatives scenario planning. 4.1 Existing Conditions Geography: Erie County is one of eight coastal counties situated on the eastern border of the Northwestern Ohio region. Erie County is bounded by Lorain County to the East, Huron County to the South, Sandusky and Ottawa Counties to the West and Lake Erie to the North. Erie County has a land area of 255 square miles with a population density of 301 people per square mile.1 In addition, the county has a water area of 371 square miles with 65 miles of shoreline along the lake and Sandusky Bay.2 The majority of the county consists of cropland (53%) and forest (16%).3 The transportation network in Erie County consists of 26 interstate highway miles, 42 US highway miles and 114 state highway miles.4 There are 622 county, township and municipal road miles, two small commercial airports, two shipping ports and 95 miles of rail line.5 The City of Sandusky, incorporated in 1824, is the largest city in Erie County and serves as the county seat.

Synopsis Abner Browns seems to be just one old-style barbershop which is embedded into the Southern Dublin neighborhood of Rathmines amongst pubs and local shops; but in there, his owner decided to mix his way of living with another of his passions in life, music. That is something that you can quickly spot, as the place has an exceptional decoration on its walls between scissors, lotions and cut-throat razors. The idea of featuring concerts in a barbershop would be crazy, but in here it becomes real, open to everyone, friendly and with no alteration in the local community’s balance of coexistence, but even improving it with the inimitable and spontaneous atmosphere that is generated only for a few hours in this improvised venue. This has become one of the main and most interesting venues in Ireland, and it is the place where every band in town wants to perform. Since the first time the Canadian singer-song writer Blair Packham played here, hundreds of acts have already performed, such as Gavin Glass, Ash, Duke Special, David Geraghty (of Bell X1 fame), Molly Sterling, Mundy, The Hot Sprockets and many more.

  • Ohio Credit Unions Add More Than 28,000 Members in 12 Months
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 25, 2021 Contact: Sean Fink Manager of Communications, Ohio Credit Union League (614) 581-0667 [email protected] U.S. Treasury Awards Rapid Response Grants to CDFIs Twelve Ohio credit unions receive more than $20.9 million in Rapid Response grants COLUMBUS, OH, June 25, 2021 — The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 recently allocated $1.25 billion to the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund (CDFI Fund) within the U.S. Treasury to deliver immediate assistance to communities impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic through eligible Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs). The CDFI Fund awarded these funds through the CDFI Rapid Response Program (CDFI RRP), to rapidly support financial products, financial services, development services, and certain operational activities, which enable CDFIs to build capital reserves and loan-loss reserves. Twelve Ohio CDFI-certified credit unions were awarded RRP funds, including Buckeye State Credit Union. President and CEO Michael Abernathy stated, “Buckeye State Credit Union has been a proud CDFI since 2018 and has been awarded grants in the past, but the $1,800,000 RRP grant is a game changer. It allows us to introduce new products and services that will make an impact on the communities we serve. These grants continue to allow us to provide loans to those with challenged or recovering credit that help prevent members of our community from being taken advantage of by predatory lenders.
