Amelia Earhart On This Day in Seneca County History –
February 23rd, 1935 - While researching local history, it’s always neat to
come across the many famous people who have passed through Seneca County over
the many years. On this date, it was reported in the Fostoria Daily Review
newspaper, that Amelia Earhart, the first lady of the air, made a brief but
unexpected stop at Fostoria on that day. She was on her way to Toledo from
Marion, where she had delivered an address, when her car met with a minor traffic accident that didn’t allow
her to continue beyond Toledo. She was then forced to take a train back to
Chicago. Today’s photo of Amelia was taken in 1935, the same year that she
passed through Fostoria. Only two years later, on July 2, 1937, Amelia
disappeared over the central Pacific Ocean attempting to make a
circumnavigational flight around the globe. Thanks to Brian Courtney for
finding this historical story! 50 miles from Tiffin, wow. The amount of beyond significant and key to the development of Western Culture including the entire field of Psychology the Ogles of Tiffin were directly involved. Now add Amelia Earhart to that list. Remember the FreiKorp previous to 1940 were still an extremely powerful group in Ohio. The FreiKorp renamed one of their branches to NAZI Jan 10, 1920 under the direction of Adolf Hitler. Fort Ball was in part manned by FreiKorp members. Between Fostoria and
Tiffin was the Car accident. Less than 15 miles and the Ogles interacted with
Obviously Amelia has
worked as an Air recon spy for the majority of her flying career. She likely
was part fo the Air America flights between Maine
and Ireland in the 19teens through the 1930s. The amount of interactions with spy stuff she did was a significant part
of virtually every single part of her flying career. What in her spy
career brought her to Tiffin within two years of her last flight? The Ogles are only
the west side of city. She would have had to pass through Ogle Lands to go anywhere
east in just few miles past were her car might have Crashed. The Ogles and
the FreiKorp had been at war with each other since the day the Prussians
formed the FreiKorp. For that matter the Ogles has been at war with the
Prussians also since day one. |
