  • Chapter 13 People and Places Isaac Betts1: the Centerpiece of The
    Chapter 13 People and Places Isaac Betts1: The centerpiece of the Betts-Longworth Historic District, formed in 1982, is the Betts house - now restored and open to the public as the Betts House Research Center. The two-story Federal style house was built by the Revolutionary War veteran William Betts and his wife Phebe Stevens Betts. They moved in 1790 from Rahway, New Jersey to Brownsville, Pennsylvania and then by flatboat to Cincinnati in 1800 bringing their seven children and elderly parents. Settling first in Lebanon on land purchased from John Cleves Symmes, the deed proved faulty and their money was refunded, enabling Betts to return to Cincinnati in 1802. Betts here established a brick factory. The oldest brick building on its original site in Cincinnati, the Betts homestead was built in 1804 at 416 Clark Street on land William Betts obtained as repayment of a debt owed to him by Joel Williams, a tavern keeper. Betts purchased 111 acres from Williams for $1,665. Joel Williams, who had come with Israel Ludlow from New Jersey to survey and plat what later became Cincinnati, obtained large tracts of land from the first land lottery. The West End area was flat and grassy, thus the nickname of “little Texas.” Outside of the boundaries of Cincinnati, it was an early neighborhood to be developed beyond the central business district. Some of the adjoining land was owned by Nicholas Longworth. Betts was a brick maker, using the easily obtainable local clay; he also operated part of his land as a farm since brick making was a seasonal business.

    I About the CoverAbout Cover Front Cover: The Tyler-Davidson Fountain The Tyler-Davidson Fountain, affectionately known as “the People’s Fountain,” after being restored, was rededicated “TO THE PEOPLE OF CINCINNATI” in May 2000. Throughout the decades, Cincinnatians have gathered at the fountain for public ceremonies, holidays, events, rallies, and the special celebrations that give community life its greatest meaning. Cincinnati philanthropist Henry Probasco commissioned the fountain based on the design of a young German sculptor named August von Kieling. The design depicted people in everyday pursuits enjoying the many uses and benefits of water. The fountain, crafted of bronze and porphyry stone, was first dedicated on October 6, 1871 on Probasco Place – later renamed Fountain Square. [Photography: City Manager’s Office.] Back Cover: Styler Davidsown Sow-tain The Big Pig Gig, which kicked-off on Fountain Square and ran from February through September 2000, was a collaborative effort of schools, businesses, non-profit organizations and area artists to unify Cincinnati’s art community and celebrate the City’s “Porkopolis” heritage. Over 400 fiberglass pigs were sponsored and later auctioned off to raise money for ArtWorks – an arts based employment and job-training program for youth in Greater Cincinnati. The Styler Davidsown Sow-tain made its debut in The Big Pig Gig in June, 2000. It bears an uncanny resemblance to the original fountain, complete with bronze coloring and water spraying from the top.

  • Brand New Mississippi Sternwheeler from American Cruise Lines
    Brand New Mississippi Sternwheeler from American Cruise Lines Guilford, CT - American Cruise Lines has announced it is expanding to the Mississippi River system with a brand new sternwheeler, already under construction at Chesapeake Shipbuilding in Salisbury, MD. It plans to operate the new riverboat on routes similar to those formerly run by Delta Queen Steamboat Company, which will include the Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, and Cumberland Rivers. Cruising the Mississippi River on a sternwheeler is a true all-American experience that American Cruise Lines is pleased to bring back. The new paddlewheeler will recreate the grandeur of past riverboats while possessing the latest safety, environmental and construction technologies. The ship will have the look of a traditional riverboat along with more amenities, a faster speed, and an unmatched level of comfort. Features include six unique lounges, a library, an elegant dining salon, elevator service to all decks, and the exceptionally large staterooms found on all American Cruise Lines ships. With only 140 passengers, each guest will receive personalized service in the intimate and friendly atmosphere for which American Cruise Lines has become known. The first cruise is a scheduled to depart August 11, 2012 from New Orleans, Louisiana on a 7-night journey up the Mississippi to Memphis, Tennessee. The ship will then begin a series of 7-night cruises travelling as far north as St. Paul, Minnesota while utilizing its remarkable speed to open up new itinerary possibilities. As on all true riverboats, a stage and bow ramp will give the ship access to the many interesting ports without docking facilities.

  • Remarks on the Dedication of the Restored Fort Washington Monument
    Remarks on the Dedication of the Restored Fort Washington Monument by ARTHUR G. KING, M. D. On Memorial Day, May 30, 1963, in an impressive ceremony at the site, the restored Fort Washington Monument was dedicated. The original monument had stood at Third and Ludlow Streets since 1901, but was dismantled in the 1950's when the Third Street Distributor was constructed. The new monument contains a revised inscription and a corrected map; on the map of the old monument, the location of the Fort was in error. We take pride in the fact that our Society has been vitally instru- mental in the planning and completion of the new monument. Moreover, HPSO Collection Unveiling of the Fort Washington Monument June 14, 1901 Dedication of the Restored Fort Washington Monument 203 the main address for the dedicatory ceremony was presented by Arthur G.

  • Greater Jeffersontown Historical Society Meetings Are Now Held on the First Monday of the Even Numbered Months of the Year
    GREATER JEFFERSONTOWN HISTORICAL SOCIETY NEWSLETTER December 2015 Vol. 13 Number 6 December 2015 Meeting The December meeting will be held Monday, December 7, 2015. We will meet at 7:00 P.M. in the meeting room of the Jeffersontown Library at 10635 Watterson Trail. The speaker will be Robert Prather who is going to tell us about The Strange Case of Jonathan Swift and the Real Long John Silver. Swift was a miner in the 1700s and is said to have owned the largest mansion in Alexandria, Virginia. Was the mine in Kentucky or Virginia or Tennessee? Some traditions say it is/was in Kentucky. What is the true identity of the mysterious silver miner? Sources of information provided in Kentucky history books were generally attained through verbal accounts; therefore, no written verifiable description has ever been provided to disclose the miner’s full identity. Mr. Prather says that the identity of the mysterious silver miner is revealed in his book. The author also states, “As with all folk stories and legends, only basic information regarding any particular story is passed on by verbal accounts and in most instances the stories have been embellished and altered from one telling to the next.” Swift’s mining activities took place during the late 1700’s, so how much truth has survived? The Greater Jeffersontown Historical Society meetings are now held on the first Monday of the even numbered months of the year. Everyone is encouraged to attend to help guide and grow the Society. February, 2016 Meeting As part of Black History Month along with the Jeffersontown Branch Library we will have a program presented by local author, Carridder Jones, “Voices from Historical African American Communities Near Louisville, Kentucky.” October Meeting Kadie Engstrom, Education Coordinator for the Belle of Louisville, has worked with the historic steamboat Belle of Louisville in several capacities since 1972, and has been Education Coordinator since 1992.
