SUMMARY:Union County Chapter of OGS May Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The Union County Chapter of the Ohio Genealogical Society invites you to join us at 10 A. M. on Saturday\, May 9 for the program\, My Family and Indian Massacres. The presentation will be in meeting room “A” at the Marysville Public Library\, 231 S. Plum Street\, Marysville. (Elevator inside back door.) Our Marysville Municipal Court Judge\, Robert W. Parrott\, will be our speaker. Judge Parrott is also the President of the Union County Historical Society and life-long resident of Union County.\nIn researching one of his Union County family lines\, He has traced that family back to Massachusetts. He found that they were part of the expansion from the east coast settlements into the western lands of Massachusetts. Four generations of his direct line ancestors were killed in what was called at the time “Indian massacres.” Those took place in the late 1600s and early 1700s. He has wondered if anything might be found yet today concerning the “massacres.” He has spent several vacations travelling to New England in the fall to see what he could find about these “Indian massacres.” The talk will relate the story of his family being nearly wiped out by Indians resisting the expansion of European settlers and what still exists today concerning those events.\nThe event is free and open to the public.
