Tucked into the southwestern corner of Cuyahoga County, Olmsted Falls and Olmsted Township are steeped in rich Ohio history. Dating back to the late eighteenth century, the two communities grew to become a place of idyllic beauty and fascinating stories. Uncover the myth of the infamous letter "a" in the Olmsted name, and learn how Olmsted became a leader in public education in Cuyahoga County. Weather battles over saloons and attempts to annex all or part of Olmsted Township to neighboring communities, and survive Rocky River floods that destroyed bridges, dams, mills and factories. Join Bruce Banks and Jim Wallace as they provide a captivating account of these two historical communities.
