Ross County, located in the great state of Ohio, was established on August 20, 1798, by proclamation of the Governor of the Northwest Territory, Arthur St. Clair. The county was named after James Ross, a senator from Pennsylvania who supported Ohio's statehood. Covering an area of 693 square miles, Ross County is home to a population of approximately 78,000 residents.

The region has a rich historical background, playing an important role in Native American and early European-American settlement. Chillicothe, the county seat, served as the first capital of Ohio, holding the title from 1803 to 1810 and then again from 1812 to 1816. Chillicothe has the distinction of being the only city in Ohio history to hold this title on two separate occasions.

The Adena Culture, which thrived in the region from around 800 B.C. to 100 A.D., left impressive historical markers, such as the Adena Mound near Chillicothe, one of the largest mounds in the US. The Hopewell Culture, from 200 B.C. to 500 A.D., also built elaborate and impressive earthworks throughout Ross County, some of which are preserved today in the Hopewell Culture National Historical Park.

A fun fact about Ross County is that it has more visible prehistoric earthworks than any other county in Ohio. The Great Seal State Park and the Hopewell Culture National Historical Park provide opportunities for visitors to explore these earthworks and gain an understanding of the ancient cultures that once inhabited the region.
