Title
Historic Columbus Indiana An Online Historical Reference Library
Description
All of the offerings on the Historic Columbus Indiana website were, and are, developed, implemented, and maintained by David Sechrest. Historic Columbus Indiana has officially been online since March, 2002. The site was created in June, 2001. This is the effort by one individual with the purpose of sharing our cultural and community heritage. Hopefully, with the proper funding, this site will forever be "under construction," and it is hoped that this site will provide an all-encompassing history of Columbus Indiana.
It is said that Columbus Indiana is a city Different By Design. The Historic Columbus Indiana website strives to live up to the same philosophy by offering a Different By Design website, and is one of but a very few internet sites that offers such a vast array of resources relating to the history of our community, or any other community, for that matter. One example of my Different By Design philosophy is the Columbus High School Yearbook section. It is a vast undertaking in and of itself. No other website on the internet and no other city can boast that they provide the same. The genealogical aspects of this offering are unique among other websites, and the yearbook pages should be viewed with more than just a nostalgic taste. There is a deeper, more profound reason the yearbooks are offered.
The Historic Columbus Indiana website is also Different By Design by the historical Postcard Page it offers. Not only does this page contain a pictorial history of the changes our city has undergone, but it also provides a glimpse at what life was like in Columbus Indiana in the early to mid 1900's, and I am proud to announce that it is one of but a few websites that offers such a comprehensive selection in one place. As with most websites, like the Indiana Historical Society's webpage, there is a listing of the postcards in their collection, but in order to view the postcards, you have to pay a visit to the Historical Society in Indianapolis. In keeping with the Different By Design attitude of this website, it is more important to offer the viewer a chance to see them from the comfort of their home, their business, or their school.
