Description: This photograph is an aerial view of Bainbridge, Ohio, in 1949. Despite being somewhat out of focus, the image nevertheless provides good view of the town's layout and major landmarks. Founded in 1817, Bainbridge Township was named for Commodore William Bainbridge, commander of the USS Constitution during the War of 1812. The unincorporated hamlet of Bainbridge Center is both the geographic and historic center of Bainbridge Township. The town hall, churches, stores, shops, a school, and post office were established in Bainbridge Center. The architecture of houses in the area, most notably those built during the Greek Revival period, reflects the agricultural past of the community and its development in the twentieth century. Citizens gathered in The Center to attend church and school, shop, and participate in social and political functions. View on Ohio Memory.

Description: This photograph shows the remains of the Hotel Fetter after a fire in downtown Upper Sandusky, Ohio, in November 1918. Two fire-damaged buildings stand on either side of rubble. The sidewalk is roped off and still covered in bricks and wood. Two war posters, one with Uncle Sam reading, "I want you for the US Army," and one with a portrait of Woodrow Wilson reading, "Stand by the President," are hung in a shop window. All guests at the Hotel Fetter were safely evacuated and the staff had time to save the contents before the building caught fire. The fire caused two fatalities and $250,000 in damages overall. The Wyandot County Courthouse (the dome of which can be seen in the photo), was slightly damaged by smoke but otherwise unharmed by the fire.
