Tales of The Old-Timers - A History of Lexington records small portions of life in Lexington, Ohio, over the last two centuries. The interesting words of early writers are used just as they put them to paper. The stories are based simply on facts dug up by the author and written down with only his own understanding of times past and the perspective of old-timers used as a guide. In some cases, information supplied from fading memories may have been embellished or remembered incorrectly by the old-timers, but it provides a rich tapestry of local Lexington history
