About

Richland County OH is a place in the midwestern landscape that is, in many ways, just like any number of other places on the map; but it has long been one of the unique crossroads of the U.S., and it has a most interesting way of intersecting with American History.

These stories collected from the writings of Timothy Brian McKee explore our rich past.

Here is an introduction to Richland’s cities, towns and villages: touring landmark sites, meeting the people who impacted our timeline, and understanding events that shaped our community.

    • What an awesome site. Grew up in Mansfield, but have been away for almost 40 years. A great way to get reaquainted with forgotten/unknown history!

      Loved the article on the BSA Klondike Derby! It brought back memories.

      I was in troop 111 (and 113). Which troop were you in? Were you on the Aquatic Staff at Avery Hand? 1978 or 1979?

  2. Timothy is such a gift to the Richland community.
    His passion and love for this area is shown in each and every article that he so thoroughly researches and presents in such a fascinating manner.
    If history was presented this way in school, it would be everyone’s favorite class!
    So thankful for the time he devotes to these creations with his excellent writing skills and the many added details of maps, photos, and other images that enhance the story greatly.
    Many of those images are his artistic pieces that make the story all the more magical.
