Description: Photograph from the Columbus Free Press showing nurses Louise Kaufmann and Meg Garnett speaking with a patient during a check-up at the Friends of the Homeless shelter in Columbus, Ohio, August 13, 1990. Friends of the Homeless is a non-profit organization which operates separate shelters for men and women in the community, as well as transitional housing options. The Columbus Free Press began as a bi-weekly publication in Columbus, Ohio, in 1970. An underground newspaper, it replaced the Ohio State University publication The People, Yes. The earliest known issue of the newspaper appeared on January 4, 1971. The newspaper underwent a series of name changes over the decades, with titles including the Columbus Free Press & Cowtown Times (1972-1976), the Columbus Freepress (1976-1992) and The Free Press (1992-1995). The paper, which covered many liberal and progressive causes, was an alternative to mainstream news sources in central Ohio with the slogan “The Other Side of the News.” In 1995, the paper ceased publication briefly before reemerging as a website in early 1996, and returning as a print publication under the Free Press title in the form of a quarterly journal in 1998. Published under various frequencies during the first part of the 21st century, the Free Press again became a nonprofit monthly publication in 2017 with both a print and web presence, published by the Columbus Institute for Contemporary Journalism and operated by a volunteer staff and board.

Description: Portrait of professional sharpshooter Annie Oakley from Darke County, Ohio by the Baker Art Gallery in Columbus, Ohio, ca. 1880 - 1889. Phoebe Anne Mozee (also Mosey, Moses), better known as Annie Oakley, was a famous sharpshooter and women's rights advocate in the late 19th and early 20th century. Born August 13, 1860, in Darke County, Ohio, Oakley showed skill with firearms from an early age, using profits earned from the sale of wild game she killed to pay off her parents' mortgage. In 1875, she won a shooting contest against marksman Frank E. Butler in Cincinnati, Ohio, who convinced her to travel and perform with him. Oakley and Butler later married. The two performed in Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West Show where Oakley remained until 1901, traveling across the country and to Europe with the show. She emerged as the first female American superstar and advocated women's right to join the army and serve in active combat situations. View on Ohio Memory.

Description: The photograph shows the monument "Madonna of the Trail" on the grounds of the Ohio Masonic Home. The sculpture is of a pioneer women with a child clutching her leg. Two people are looking at the monument. There is an inscription on the front of the monument that reads: "Madonna of the Trail. N.S.D.A.R. Memorial to the Pioneer Mothers of the Covered Wagon Days." An inscription on the side reads: "They were just as brave or braver than their men because, in many cases, they went with sad hearts and trembling bodies. They went, however, and endured every hardship that befalls a pioneer." Madonna of the Trail is a series of 12 monuments dedicated to the spirit of pioneer women in the United States. The monuments were commissioned by the National Society of Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR). They were placed along the National Old Trails Road and extended from Bethesda, Maryland, to Upland, California, in each of the 12 states the road passed through. Created by sculptor August Leimbach and funded by contributions, the Madonna of the Trail monuments were intended to provide a symbol of the courage and faith of the women whose strength and love aided so greatly in conquering the wilderness and establishing permanent homes. The Ohio Madonna of the Trail Monument was the first of the series to be unveiled, with dedication ceremonies taking place July 4, 1928. She stood on the grounds of the Ohio Masonic Home until 1956 - 1957 when Ohio Routes 4 and 40 were expanded which necessitated moving the statue about 1/4 mile to its current location. The statue now stands just east of the intersection of Routes 68 4/40, near Snyder Park. Restoration work began in 2001 and cost more than $50, 000. On July 4, 2003 re-dedication ceremonies took place to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the original dedication. View on Ohio Memory.
