Description: Reverse reads: "Logan Elm State Park near Circleville O" The Logan Elm, according to local legend, was the location of a speech on Indian and white relations given by Chief Logan of the Seneca-Cayuga Tribe in 1774. Known as "Logan's Lament" the speech included his grievances over the white settlers' betrayal and murder of his family and tribesmen. When the tree died in 1964, it was estimated to be between 200 and 300 years old, and was approximately 24 feet in circumference. In its place, the Ohio Historical Society and Pickaway Country placed a plaque, and, recently, the Society planted a pin oak tree in honor of Chief Logan and the legendary elm tree.

Description: The once-massive limestone rock outcropping standing in the Maumee River known as Roche de Boeuf has marked many events in the history of the Maumee Valley. It was a legendary site for American Indians and the place where they gathered before the Battle of Fallen Timbers in August 1794. Early records indicate a nearby French settlement in the 1700s was called both Roche de Bout and Roche de Boeuf (spelled here Rouche de Boeuf), but for the last hundred years or so the latter has been most frequently used for both the rock and the lost settlement. About one-third of the rock was destroyed when the railroad bridge was built which caused a great controversy. View on Ohio Memory.
