The History of Worthington This year Worthington is one hundred and fifty years old. We are going to take you on a tour of Worthington so that you may see some of the points of interest and learn its historical background. Let’s meet in front of Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Wright’s house at 28 Granville Road. There you see a rock which is said to mark the center-of the Scioto Land Company’s purchase. A group of people in Connecticut headed by the Reverend James Kilbourne formed the Scioto Company in 1802. They made all the plans for a settlement in Ohio before leaving Connecticut. The division of land was made as follows from the Abstract of Articles of Agreement of the Company. THE SCIOTO COMPANY Article IV In the center of the tract or as near it as is practicable and at the crossroads shall be laid out a square town plot containing 160 acres which shall be divided into 160 lots, four of which lots and those lying upon the four central corners shall be given out as a public square to remain for a green or Parade. Also there shall be one of these town lots and one farm lot for the use and benefit of a Protestant Episcopal Society which lots thall contain at least 100 acres. And from the remaining lands on the three roads shall be laid out as many lots of 100 acres each including one town lot and a proportion of public lands, roads and waters, as there shall be actual settlers in the most eligible situation for home lot forms, and each settler who shall be entitled to one of said lots where these have been surveyed out as above and the farms and town lots numbered in due order, the shall be set up as lots to be bid for, and the proprietor who bids most shall have the first choice both in the town plot and the farm plots. The remaining land is to be divided to each man in proportion to his right in the remaining lands after the first set of farms are laid out. Article V Each subscriber shall in his own person or by his son make actual settlements upon the lands so purchased within two years. Executed Dec. 14, 1802 Granby, Massachusetts 1807
