Description: The Bicentennial barn-painting program was an inexpensive, grassroots marketing campaign that painted the official logo of the Ohio Bicentennial on a highly visible historic barn in each of Ohio's 88 counties. Over 2,000 farmers and landowners submitted their barn descriptions to the committee for consideration. Beginning in 1998, artist Scott Hagan spent five years painting the logos, tailored to every barn's unique character. Typically, the barn owners hosted a celebration at the completion of their barn painting. This photograph is an exterior view of Barn #40, the 40th barn that Hagan painted, located on Old Route 24 in Paulding County. View on Ohio Memory.

Description: Canal plat map showing Six Mile Creek Reservoir in Paulding County and the adjacent path of the Wabash and Erie Canal. The Reservoir was constructed to supply water to the Wabash and Erie, which ran approximately east to west across Paulding County, and intersected the north-south Miami and Erie Canal at the nearby village of Junction. The map was created under the direction of the members of the Canal Commission of the state of Ohio and approved by the Chief Engineer of the Department of Public Works (variously referred to as the Board of Public Works and the Division of Public Works). Construction on the Miami and Erie Canal took place between 1825 and 1845, and the finished route connected Cincinnati and Toledo, as well as the Ohio River with Lake Erie. View on Ohio Memory.
