Felicity woman honored for extended area telephone service victory
Jean Beyke of Felicity led a six year campaign with Clermont County chamber backing to extend Cincinnati area telephone service into Clermont. After lobbying PUCO and gathering thousands of signatures, hearings in 1982 paved the way for Bethel and surrounding exchanges to gain service in 1983, greatly easing tolls for county residents and businesses. Beyke, aided by 70 volunteers, testified at PUCO hearings and inspired local support from the Felicity Businessmen's Association and county officials.
