One family's journey from Massachusetts ends in your backyard 🗺️
Good morning, Ross County. Every family has a story worth telling — and this weekend, Richard Childs of the Bainbridge Township Historical Society is sharing his, tracing his ancestors' journey from Massachusetts to Bainbridge in a talk that puts a personal face on local history. On the national front, Wall Street had a rough go of it as oil prices surged 6% amid renewed Middle East tensions, weekly jobless claims dipped in what economists are calling a "slow-hire, slow-fire" market, and Tulsa moved forward with a landmark $105 million reparations plan that's reopening one of America's most painful chapters.
On the lighter side, Tecumseh's Epic Legend Show is just around the corner if you're in the mood for some outdoor drama — and fresh local real estate listings are waiting inside too.
