Sat, 29 Sep 2007 21:41:07 +0000http://civilwarcavalry.com/?p=574#comment-13926I know Celina, Ohio, quite well having grown up in St. Marys at the other end of Grand Lake. We were the Roughriders (early cavalry interest?), they the Bulldogs, our chief rivals in football, basketball, and girls. Grand Lake, which we always referred to as the “Grand Mudhole,” was built in the early 1840s as a reservoir for the Miami and Erie Canal by damming up one end of a swamp. When the water level was low, racing speed boats often impaled themselves on one of the hundreds of semi-petrified tree stumps that were left in place when the lake was filled. Maybe they still do. St. Marys started out as Girtystown, trading post of the notorious British loyalist/renegade Simon Girty. Anthony Wayne built one of his forts there during the campaign that climaxed at Fallen Timbers in 1794. The site of the fort (still a source of contention) was behind the house where I grew up on the bank of the St. Marys River. I know because I saw it one day. Early spring, after lots of rain, I walked back to the old Lutheran Cemetery and there it was. Where the ground had been trenched and disturbed the grass was three inches taller and five shades darker green. I could follow the line of the stockade walls, found the gate area with what was probably a blockhouse, could see foundations for structures inside. I think about half the fort had been strip-mined from a borrow pit adjacent to the cemetery. A team of archeologists searched for the fort about eight years ago. They were close, found period artifacts, but didn’t find the fort. I’ve always meant to clue them in, but either never got around to it or, perhaps, selfishly wanted to keep that special morning to myself. Anyway, Eric, thanks for dredging up the memory for me.
