Hamilton County Clerk Kathy Kreag Williams was recently presented with the Sagamore of the Wabash award by Indiana State Representative Tom Saunders.
The honorary award was created by the State of Indiana during the term of Governor Ralph F. Gates, who served from 1945 to 1949, and is considered to be one of the most distinguished awards presented by the state.
The award states the honoree is “distinguished by her humanity in living, her loyalty in friendship, her wisdom in council, and her inspiration in leadership.”
Williams served 26 years as a member of the Indiana House of Representatives, 10 years (1982-1991 and 2019-2021) as Hamilton County Clerk, and has been employed by the county for a total of 45 years.
