My name is Christina Anthony
and I'm your Washington County, Ohio host. I
will be posting as much data
online as possible in order to make it freely available to
all. We gratefully accept contributions of raw data such
as census information, marriage, birth, death record,
obituaries, county histories, biographies, old newspaper items
- anything that would help someone build their family
tree!!
Feel free to email me with
your contributions - every little bit helps.
If you
have the desire to help transcribe genealogical data and place
it online for the free use of all researchers,
contact Kim to
become a host. Volunteer Information is
available here.
WE REGRET THAT WE
ARE UNABLE TO DO PERSONAL RESEARCH FOR
YOU.

Washington County, originally about
one-half the territory now included in the State of
Ohio, was established by proclamation of Gov. Arthur St.
Clair, Governor of the Northwest Territory, on the 26th
day of July, 1788. Events which led up to this
establishment were due to the perseverance of two great
men, Gen. Rufus Putnam and Rev. Dr. Manasseh Cutler, the
formation and function of the Ohio Company and the
passage by the Continental Congress of the "Ordinance of
1787". |
