Description: Taken by photographer Louis Baus, this photographic reproduction shows a view of the Tuscarawas River in Tuscarawas County, Ohio, in 1820 near the community of the Society of Separatists of Zoar. Led by Joseph Bimeler in 1817, a group of Lutheran separatists left the area of Germany known as Wurttemberg and eventually established the small community of Zoar in Tuscarawas County, Ohio. They would become known as the Society of Separatists of Zoar in 1819. View on Ohio Memory.
