                                                       Welcome from the President  

As president of Oregon-Jerusalem Historical Society, I am pleased to welcome you to our website.  Our society was organized over 30 years ago by a local educator, Josephine Fassett.  We continue the mission of preserving local history and educating the community to harbor respect for what once was and what will be.  Our complex consists of Brandville School, built in 1882 as the only two-room school in Oregon Township; a one-room ”sled” (portable)  school  which was originally moved throughout the community as student needs required; a reproduction  carriage house and the annex containing the Walter Taylor Library and genealogy files.   

Oregon, Ohio was incorporated from Oregon Township in 1957 and has approximately 20,000 residents.  Our local government continues to be very supportive of our efforts to preserve our local heritage.

Our Board of Trustees has launched several new programs and projects (see upcoming events):

As with any service organization, members are vital for its viability.   Membership dues are a major portion of our financial support.  Voluntarism is always welcome!  Consider getting involved by either and/or both means.
