Southeastern Ohio in Words and Pictures
Welcome to the Silverheels Riffle!
This web site is intended to promote an interest and pride in our heritage and give the people of this generation a chance to remember and pass on bits of what we have almost forgotten.
This is not just for Morgan County but for all Southeastern Ohio.
Just think for a minute about some bit of information that you might have almost forgotten about, say, Captain Issac Newton Hook or the last name of one of the builders of the fort at Marietta. Maybe someone in your family was married to one of the early pioneers, or remembers river boating on the Muskingum or Ohio rivers.
Don't forget to check all the pages on this web site for books and other items that might be of interest.
You may want to begin by reading one of the stories in Navigation in the sidebar to the left.left - and begin with: Silverheels: Our Namesake
Enjoy and come back often!
