| Although the Dayton Historical Society is known to have been formed in 187, organized interest in Dayton history goes back earlier to "The Pioneer Association of Dayton." The organization started as a result of a series of historical articles published in the Dayton Journal after Major Bickham took over the Journal in 1866. All the "old persons born in this country before 1820 ..." were invited to form the first society. The association however, was disbanded in 1888. This is the song of the Pioneer Association. |
