Last Wednesday evening, Hamilton County Historian David Heighway spoke to the Lions Club detailing some of the stories in his new book, Hidden History of Hamilton County. He highlighted one funny story, that being the “Great Squirrel Stampede” of 1822. This story, and others, generated a lot of questions from the club. He also mentioned that he is working on stories for the Hamilton County Bicentennial, with a book coming out next year. Heighway mentioned that anyone with stories or photos to contribute of the time period should contact him.
