My family and I lived in Marietta for five years. A wonderful town to raise a family, or even to visit on a weekend when they host one of their many festivals. The downtown has many excellent dining and entertainment options as well.
We moved to Marietta in 1963, 31:46 when I was 10, and I thought I'd gone to Heaven! It was a great place to be a kid back then. It was good to see Harley; he was a year ahead of me in highschool, as was Mayor Shlicher's mother. Excellent presentation!
What a wonderful interview! I learned a lot and hope to learn more and visit Marietta. I have early ancestors who lived in Marietta for a time, DeVores/Carpenters. Thanks for sharing such a wealth of information!
This was an extremely well done, very informative video. Harley did a wonderful job taking us through the history of this awesome town. Thanks to you both for bringing us this video.
Very informative video. I'm a Pennsylvanian, currently living in Maine. For some reason I've always been drawn to Marietta. Hopefully i can convince my fiance to move here some day.
As a descendant of one of Marietta’s 48 pioneers, I want to commend you on the fantastic job you’ve done telling the Marietta story. Thank you for keeping Her history alive.
Which Settler are you related to...I am related to the Goodales and the Putnams...and the 1808 arrival Nathaniel Clark the stoneware potter in Marietta and Parkersburg...
We visit Marietta often because there are so many things to see and do. We bike around on the river trail, eat at local restaurants, walking is shopping is nice, and educational things for the grandchildren. Lovely city that holds onto their history due to the good work of this man. The Trolley ride is great.
Great video, very interesting and informative. Marietta is beautiful, interesting city. We have spent many weekends down there for festivals and river events in the area. Thank you for a great video
Really cool interview and nice town. I live in the small town of Opelika, Alabama which has a rich history and I enjoy hearing about the history of other cities and towns. Good job!!! 👍👍👍
Where was the long boat built for the original settlers of Marietta ...to float down the Ohio to the confluence of the Muskingum and Ohio rivers...??.. 170 miles is 20 to 30 miles past Pittsburgh... and did the settlers take the land route across the mountains ...or the water route across the great lakes...to get to the Ohio River..??.. I am a cousin of both General Rufus Putnam ....and Nathaniel Clark, the Marietta and Parkersburg potter...and several others that settled Marietta and Belpre...
You left out the fact that Marietta College is heavily funded by the Ministry of State Security (the principal civilian intelligence, security and secret police agency of the People's Republic of China, responsible for foreign intelligence, counterintelligence, and political security.) It's certainly worth mentioning.
Historically speaking, skinny roads could easily be blocked by insurrection's by a single horse drawn cart. That is why wide roads were built. This goes back several centuries in Europe. At least that is what was taught in Architectual History classes back in the 1970's.
@@historyinyourownbackyard2363 yes, but you did not mention any of these specifically. i figured if you live there you could provide answers to these questions and concerns - thank you. the video was helpful

I have seen photos of mound cemetery with a round pub or inn on top
Great video, but would have been a great gesture to include The Castle Museum.
I agree 100%. They were offered the opportunity but declined to participate in the project.

So Saudi Arabia is no longer a heavy presence? Interesting? I always thought they were know for engineering and such not espionage.

Something that was left out… who Marietta was named for.
Good point.
Marie Antoinette 😊?a royal family
Member?
@@hezekiahbryant7336 Yep. Marie Antoinette.
I prefer the content where video is rolling & historical content is heard as a backdrop. I note this for the purpose of future filming.
are there old rusting steel mills?
Yes there are.
@@historyinyourownbackyard2363 ii know it's a smaller city - but Cleveland seems like a huge bomb. Ever been to Cleveland?

What is it like to live there? drugs? pollutiuon? arts? churches? freindly? snow? sunshine?
