Hello Hermon and fellow listers....... Thanks for sharing all the interesting history of Clermont County -- especially for those of us that have not been there to date. My husband's THOMPSON ancestry came west from Maine to Clermont County, Ohio. His 4th g/grandfather was ALEXANDER THOMPSON. Can you tell me if any trace of the original church founded in 1827 by Alexander Thompson, which was called "Republican Meeting House" is still visible? Surely the building isn't still there, is it? Has a new church building been built on the same site -- perhaps Mt. Holly? I'd be grateful for what you can tell me. Thanks!
