Welcome
Welcome to the website of the
New Albany-Plain Township Historical Society. New Albany and the surrounding Plain Township are
located in Franklin County, just northeast of Columbus, Ohio.
The NAPTHS was founded in 1975 to bring
together people interested in local history and to help members of the community
achieve an understanding of this history through the collection and preservation
of artifacts, documents, and oral accounts. The NAPTHS is committed to preserving and documenting our
local history for future generations, at a time when Plain Township is rapidly evolving from
rural farming community to upscale suburb.
Some examples of the Society's activities are the annual Founders Day Celebration (started by the
Historical Society in 1976 as part of the nation's Bicentennial), the annual Harvest the Arts
Festival (in conjunction with the local Arts Council), participation with the local schools in
projects for student community-service requirements and senior seminars, and the creation of a
Heritage Quilt depicting 1800s-era Plain Township in folk art applique. We invite you to
browse these pages, read our newsletter, come to our meetings and events, and get involved. There are many volunteer
opportunities and we welcome your interest and participation!
