Rich Wallace and his wife Susan |
Lots of folks in Shelby County are familiar with Richard Wallace of Sidney. Rich is a partner in the law firm of Elsass, Wallace, Evans & Co. He began practicing law in 1975 after serving in the U.S. Navy and completing law school. In 1978 he joined the firm with founding member and the late Eugene P. Elsass (1930-2007).
In addition, Rich devotes many hours of service to the Shelby County community and is active in many not-for-profit activities including the Shelby County Historical Society, Sidney First United Methodist Church, Samaritan Works, Inc, and authoring the "Out of the Past" column in the Sidney Daily News. In the opinion of many, he's also one of the most informed historians in West Central Ohio.
Back in late September, Rich visited the Village of Russia and met with a group of patrons for Friday morning breakfast at The Russia Inn. He wanted to update those interested on the Shelby County Historical Society, Shelby County Museum and The Wallace Family Learning & Innovation Center, all three of which Rich serves on the Board of Directors. Rich also extended an invitation for a road trip from Russia to Sidney to tour all three organizations.
On November 2nd, the Russia group made the journey and were treated to an enjoyable presentation of Shelby County history. Afterward they wrapped up with lunch at the famous The Spot Restaurant. Below is information on how you might also experience tales of Shelby County and the benefits of becoming a Historical Society member.
