Check out the picture of what our military collection will look like. We are hoping to get a page like this for all people who served in the military from the township, which service branch and when they served. Please send us a picture and information about you or your relative. We also have information about two men who served in the Civil War from Elizabeth Township. If you are interested in volunteering to compile this information contact Audrey Phillis at 339-5209.
The Elizabeth Township Historical Society is proud to present and display elements of the history in Elizabeth Township.
The museum hours will be by request. Call Audrey Phillis 937-339-5209. Hours for the museum will be posted once the facility is open to the public.

ABOUT OUR MUSEUM
Work is progressing on collecting and identifying pictures of the community and schools. I need your help. We have a long school picture of Elizabeth “School from 1916 and 1922 with all the students and others in them. We also have the graduating classes from 1929 on. We are looking for pictures and information of the graduates from 1919 to 1929. Does anyone know when the school began having class composites for graduating classes? Does anyone have pictures of graduating students from 1919 to 1929? Any and all information would be appreciated.
If you would like to visit the museum, call and we will open it for you. If you have any questions please call me.
