Description
Pioneers of the Lower Little Miami Valley
This book tells the history of the first families who floated down the Ohio River and landed their flatboats at Columbia/Tusculum. These included the Ferris, Stites, Muchmore, Armstrong and other pioneer families, who settled the land in and around what became the Village of Mariemont. They cleared land, hunted for food, planted crops and built their homes, creating the communities of Plainville, Newtown, Madison and Terrace Park. G. Terrence McConville and Fred L. Rutherford.
