Summary

Description
English: The Funeral Reenactment of Colonel Robert Culbertson. C.f. Facebook event page. "This reenactment of the Funeral of Colonel Robert Culbertson marks the 200th anniversary of his death on 14 April 1821. Colonel Robert Culbertson was an officer in the Revolutionary War and wealthy landowner from Pennsylvania. He arrived in Franklinton in 1801. The following year he was elected a Representative to the First Ohio General Assembly from Ross County, in which Franklinton was then located. In March, 1803 he made a motion that a new county “be stricken off" from northern Ross County, to be called Franklin County. Subsequently, the General Assembly enacted a law creating the new county with Franklinton as the county seat. Colonel Culbertson acquired Franklinton in-lot 123 in 1804 and constructed a brick house thereon in 1807. He and his wife, Elizabeth, owned and occupied the brick house during the War of 1812 when Franklinton boomed as head-quarters of the Army of the Northwest under General William Henry Harrison. Colonel Culbertson lived with his wife and family in the house until his death at the age of 82 years on 14 April 1821. The Culbertson family continued on until 1830. During his lifetime, Colonel Culbertson was associated with Lucas Sullivant, founder of Franklinton, in numerous business and political ventures. All donations for this event will go directly to the Franklinton Historical Society."
