Looking for Ohio history? You're in the right place. Like the Ohio History Connection, Found in Ohio focuses on what happened in the state. We focus on the parts of local history that get overlooked or forgotten by the majority of Ohio residents, things like hidden cemeteries, historic houses, and people who made a difference in our communities, not on a national or state-wide level. This site is slowly going to become Ohio history central, only with a focus on the smaller parts of local history.
