North Baltimore Historic Home Tour offered Saturday, July 26

From NORTH BALTIMORE OHIO AREA HISTORICAL SOCIETY

The North Baltimore Ohio Area Historical Society invites the public to the first Historic Home Tour presentation on Saturday, July 26 at 2 p.m. in the Historical Society house at 229 N. Main St. 

Former North Baltimore resident Greg Trout will speak on the history and significance of eight homes in North Baltimore. Each house’s origins, owners and families who have called them home will be discussed along with pictures, past and present. Many current residents of these homes will be present to share their stories of living in these local treasures.

Following the talk, a drawing for prizes will be held, and refreshments will be served. 

A free brochure is available that lists all the houses and includes a map to take a self-guided tour of the homes. Viewing is from the street/sidewalks only; no interiors will be available for showing. The Historical Society requests that the owner’s privacy and personal space be respected. Except for the Historical Society house, all houses are private property. 

Brochures are available at the North Baltimore Historical Society or the North Baltimore Public Library. Signs will be displayed in the yard of all homes before July 26 and during most of August. A QR code will be on the yard sign and in the brochure with directions to the Historical Society’s website for more information.
