Friends of the Museums, Inc.
Some exhibits include:
Ohio's First Peoples - view authentic clothing, items of trade, tools, and learn of the culture of these late 18th century Native Americans
Marietta Pioneers - Many Revolutionary War veterans were granted lands in the Northwest Territory in lieu of payment for their tour of duty. General Rufus Putnam, friend of George Washington, led the Ohio Company to the Ohio and Muskingum Rivers to claim their land grant. Campus Martius Museum exhibits a large collection of original artifacts, documents, and possessions from these pioneers.
The Ohio Company - Tour the original Ohio Company Land Office where Rufus Putnam worked, oldest known building in Ohio. Walk in the steps of hopeful land owners, view the maps and stake your claim in the Northwest Territory.
The Rufus Putnam House - Originally a blockhouse in the Campus Martius fortification, the Rufus Putnam House remains in its original location. The Rufus Putnam House is now restored to its original configuration. Step back into to time and see how a pioneer lived in the 1780s.
