Turkeyfoot Lake Heritage and Lahm's Ohio Story
Frank S Lahm, pioneer of Turkeyfoot Lake and Paris resident, is featured with his early lake cottage and the region’s history. The piece traces Lahm’s role in naming the lake, building the first shore structures in 1877, and preserving local lore from Portage to Akron. It recounts Indian camps, early roads, and the evolution to a summer retreat with camps along Cottage Grove and the Channel.
