See Something, Say Something

“Safety of the residents is my number one concern, but I need the people to let me know when they see something illegal or suspicious.” Deputy Pike told the Tate Township trustees at the last meeting.

See something, say something is what the deputies want you to remember. It is important for residents to report any and all suspicious activity to the Clermont County Sheriff’s Department so it can be checked out and investigated.  Always call 9-1-1 in all emergency situations.  Social media like facebook pages are not monitored by the sheriff’s department. Please tell the sheriff’s department so they can take the appropriate action.

In a non-emergency to reach Deputy Pike,  call 513-734-7088 for his cell phone.  Please leave a message if he is off-duty or busy so he can return your call when he is able.

History of Ohio 133

Once known as Bullskin Trace, the section of Ohio 133 between Bethel and Williamsburg follows a path used by Shawnee Indians and General Anthony Wayne and his troops and the Underground Railroad. Here is some history of Ohio 133:
  • Prehistorically, the trace crossed the Ohio River to the salt licks farther south in Kentucky.
  • The Shawnee Indians used the trace to reach sacred hunting grounds and the salt licks.
  • 1793, General Wayne improved the trace so he could fight Indians in northern Ohio.
  • 1807 – 1808, the Ohio Legislature established the road as the Xenia State Road. At that time, $700 was obtained to buy land to create a 20-foot right of way. That 60 foot width remains.
  • War of 1812, the road was improved so supplies could be hauled to Detroit and Sandusky for ships on the Great Lakes.
  • Pre-Civil War period, the road became an avenue for runaway slaves as part of the Underground railroad.
  • 1920’s, the road became part of the State highway system.
  • Today, the two lane road follows the route of the original trace with few minor improvements.
