Preserving the Wonderful History of South Amherst, Ohio
About Us
The birth of the South Amherst Historical Society started on a cold January evening in 2016. The importance of preserving the history of the Village of South Amherst was the topic of the meeting. A core group of people continued to meet and organize. The meetings were opened to the public in the summer of 2016, where it became evident that the history of the village was important to many. One year later, in January of 2017 the South Amherst Historical Society became incorporated.
