Elizabeth Neidecker Canal Society of Ohio collection
Collection Organization
The Elizabeth Neidecker Canal Society of Ohio collection consists of materials containing mostly subject files and printed materials relating to canal tours and canal related localities from 1965 to 1993. Subject files ranging from 1973 to 1993 cover the various canal tours conducted by the society and contain itineraries, histories and tourist information about the segments of the canal the group sought to explore in-depth. Scrapbook materials include pictures from the canal tours along with accompanying newsclippings discussing the history and preservation of Ohio’s many canals. Printed materials consist of booklets about the canals along with society newsletters and bulletins. There are also audio materials discussing canal histories along with a cassette containing canal songs.
