James Garfield House  Save
Description: This image shows the James Garfield House in Mentor, Ohio. James Abram Garfield was the twentieth President of the United States. Garfield purchased the home in 1876 to accommodate his growing family. The home, named Lawnfield by onlookers, was the site of the first successful front porch campaign in 1880. That same year, Garfield had 11 more rooms added to the building to accommodate his large family. James A. Garfield was President from March 4, 1881, until his death on September 19, 1881. Four years after his assassination, the Memorial Library wing was added by Mrs. Garfield and her family - setting the precedent for presidential libraries. In 1859, Garfield began a political career, winning election to the Ohio Senate as a member of the Republican Party. During the Civil War, Garfield resigned his position as president of Hiram College and joined the Union Army. He began as lieutenant-colonel of the Forty-Second Ohio Volunteer Infantry and fought in the Battles of Shiloh and Chickamauga. He resigned from the army on December 5, 1863, with the rank of major general. Garfield resigned his commission because Ohio voters had elected him to the United States House of Representatives. He served nine consecutive terms in the House of Representatives before he was elected President of the United States in 1880. In Congress, Garfield was a supporter of the Radical Republicans. He opposed President Andrew Johnson's lenient policy toward the conquered Southern states and demanded the enfranchisement of African-American men. Garfield served for only four months before he was shot by Charles J. Guiteau. The president lived for two more months, before dying on September 19, 1881. View on Ohio Memory.

Western landscape photograph  Save
Description: This photograph shows a man riding a horse in Monument Valley, along the Arizona-Utah border. The bottom caption reads: "WEIRD AND WONDERFUL MONUMENTS IN MONUMENT VALLEY." The photograph belongs to the Zane Grey Photograph Collection. Grey was a popular and widely-read novelist of the American West. He was born in Zanesville, Ohio, on January 31, 1872, to Lewis Grey and Alice Josephine Zane Grey. As a teenager, Grey was an excellent baseball player. He won a baseball scholarship to the University of Pennsylvania, where he studied to become a dentist. Once he left school and began his dental practice in New York, Grey realized that he was not happy. He decided to leave dentistry behind and become a writer. Grey's first novel, "Betty Zane," drew inspiration from the stories he had heard about frontier Ohio when he was growing up. He wrote "Betty Zane" in 1904 but was not able to find a publisher at first. Refusing to give up, Grey traveled west and continued writing. In 1910, he had his first success when Harper's Magazine published "The Heritage of the Desert." Two years later, Harper's published "Riders of the Purple Sage." Grey died unexpectedly of a heart attack on October 23, 1939. By the time of his death, he had written almost ninety books. Most of his books were Westerns, but he also wrote nine books that had a fishing theme. Grey also published many short stories, a biography of George Washington as a young man, and several stories for children. Some of Grey's other popular Western novels included "Spirit of the Border," "Desert Gold," "The Last Trail," "The Call of the Canyon," and "The Thundering Herd." View on Ohio Memory.

Marblehead Lighthouse photograph  Save
Description: Marblehead Lighthouse, built in 1821, Marblehead, Ottawa County, Ohio, ca. 1940-1949. Marblehead Lighthouse is located on the tip of the Marblehead Peninsula in Marblehead, Ohio. It has operated since 1822 and is the oldest lighthouse in continuous operation on the US side of the Great Lakes. In 1858, initially used whale oil lamps were replaced by a single kerosene lantern, which in turn was replaced by electric light in 1923. A lifesaving station was built a short distance from the lighthouse in 1876. Marblehead Lighthouse was one of five lighthouses included in the "Lighthouses of the Great Lakes" postage stamp series designed by Howard Koslow in 1995. View on Ohio Memory.

Marblehead Lighthouse photograph  Save
Description: This color image shows an exterior view of Marblehead Lighthouse, located at the tip of Marblehead Peninsula on Lake Erie's Ohio coastline. The lighthouse stands in the center of the image, framed by a blue sky and lush green trees. The commanding view from the top of the lighthouse showcases several Lake Erie islands, a glacial alavar below, and a view of the Cleveland shoreline on clear days. Built in 1821, the lighthouse is constructed of limestone covered with white stucco. In its early days the lighthouse guided ships into Sandusky Bay using 13 whale-oil lamps and 16-inch reflectors. Technological improvements have included a single kerosene lamp and Fresnel lens (1858); a mechanism to rotate the lantern; electric light (1923); automation (1958); and a 300 mm beacon that flashes a green light (ca. 1969). For many years it was the only lighthouse in the Sandusky Bay area. Benajah Wolcott (1762-1832) was the first keeper of the Marblehead Lighthouse (originally called the Sandusky Bay Light). After his death, the U.S. government appointed his widow, Rachel Miller Wolcott, to the post, making her the first female lighthouse keeper on the Great Lakes. The second female lighthouse keeper was Johanne McGee, who held the position after the death of her husband, keeper George McGee. She served from 1896 to 1903. A total of fifteen civilian keepers have tended the light. The United States Coast Guard has been responsible for the maintenance of the beacon since 1946. Beginning in 1972, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources has maintained the property surrounding the lighthouse. The area became a state park in 1998. The keeper’s house was built in 1880 and is now a museum staffed by historical society volunteers. View on Ohio Memory.
