Lakewood Historical Society: Dennison, Tod, & Brough: Ohio's Civil War Governors

Ohio politics were in turmoil throughout the Civil War.  Fortunately, the state was led by three very different but equally capable men who served as governor during this difficult time.  Dennison, Tod, and Brough rallied the citizenry behind the Union and backed President Lincoln when he needed it most.  With an illustrated lecture, Magistrate William Vodrey makes it clear why Lincoln singled out Ohio, over all the other states, as the one that, "saved the Union."
