From the April 18, 2023, Chillicothe (Ohio) News "Recognized for service: Local Civil War veteran once saved the life of Nixon's great grandfather" by Shelby Reeves.
Quite the coincidence that I had just found out about Richard Enderlin in the last few weeks and to come across this article. Like I said, you never know where you're going to go when you start RoadTripping Through History.
Richard Enderlin is getting another honor next month.
The Ohio Military Hall of Fame and Valor was established in 2000 to recognize Ohio servicemen and women who were decorated for heroism while in combat situations.
He is one of 11 members of this year's class to be inducted after his death. There are a total of 24 honorees who served from trhe Civil War to Operation Enduring Freedom.
His Medal of Honor and another medal are on display at the Ross County Heritage Center in Chillicothe, Ohio.
