Monkey Jockeys Raced at The Dog Track in Historic Harrison, Ohio 

Sweet old hometown Harrison Ohio! What a wonderful place to grow up! I loved it and can't wait to eventually move back.

My hometown! Thank you for featuring it.

Good video shoe factory picture awsome,i used to work there in the early 80s in the cutting dept,My boss was joe defosee,cant remember plant manager at the time very good people to work for

Thank God for small towns and country life.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

My great grandpa Cormican used to operate a street car in Harrison and I remember him telling me stories about going to California and digging up train tracks because they were buried he said. He died in the early 80s and was 94 or so.

Terry, very interesting.....

I love your interview episodes! Keep up the great videos.

I've been starting to watch these video's in order. I only lived in the Cincinnati area for a year during Covid, but because of the shut down, I would go around the area and sight see by myself. I did get to work in Harrison Ohio during this time, it was a nice town and a quick commute from Spring Grove. I wish they would include in the history of transportation one of the unique things I've noticed about Cincinnati was that many of it's Ave's actually go to the satellite town. Harrison Ave, you can stay on it all the way to Harrison. Hamilton Ave, you can also take it all the way to Hamilton etc etc. Many other towns in the US of course have their historic roads and trails but the Cincy area ones actually are more or less still together.

Thanks.....Enjoyed the History of Harrison.... A specially the ending! 😀

Very enjoyable and informative. Thank you!

This was very interesting. Intrigued by the fact that it is on a state line.

Such a cool video documenting the actual beginning of a town and hearing the details of how it grew into the city that it is today, really neat stuff. I was really intrigued about all the transportation evolutions, really neat. Very good to interview someone with so much historical knowledge of the city as well. Susie makes the sunlight shine!!! Susie Sunshine!!!! 😉

This is great. Thanks for doing this :) I learned so much

Would love to see some info done on sharonville, They have an extremely rich history with TONS of historical buildings and an amazing historical society who have droves of knowledge on the surrounding areas as well

I used to live by Denver Baugh William Baugh's brother and their sister Opal on Carolina trace on the Indiana side

My grand father Charlie Veil would box other kids at the dog track and the men would bet on them .He would get paid a ice cream cone ..

Strange how all those fires kept occurring one at market street one at town hall one at St John's. But that was a common occurrence back in those days like they were burning buildings on purpose. All across the United States those fires would occur usually right after these supposed new buildings were constructed and then the fires occurred. Very strange coincidences across the United States during that time period

Harrison established in 1810 and already had buildings constructed and they just reoccupied the old buildings that were already there that's why you see pictures of old buildings that have the front windows buried up to the bottom of the window sill they are known as mud flood buildings and are a phenomenon throughout the United States

Wouldn't burning the bridge also leave you trapped with your enemies?????

I noticed the original photo of St John's featured the front windows buried up to the bottom that would suggest that the building was older than the established date. And I seen the underground tunnel system under market street grill which was supposed to have been built during the Civil War which would have taken all the towns resources away from being able to construct anything during that time period during the Civil War and all of the men would have been in the war leaving only the women and children to construct the underground tunnel system and the market street grill building. And would the population have been able to support these claims during the Civil War when the men were in the war. And would Harrison had the skilled laborers available during the Civil War. I don't know about this history

The interview was nice and interesting but whom ever is mowing their lawn 😳

So you think it was a tragedy that the dog track with the monkeys closed? Wouldn't that be a good thing for the animals not to be treated like that?

I don't remember Harrison ever having a problem with pigeons and if it did what happened to the pigeons. This is getting more comical than historical

You have movie's you say Terry well let's watch them and see if we can find any pigeons flying around you'd think you would be able to see pigeons if that was really the reason they wanted to destroy the building. This is histarical not historical

Gambling slot machines dog race tracks OK I understand why Harrison is the way it is now
