Local History Grant Program

The BHS Endowment Fund will offer a One Thousand Dollar ($1,000.00) Grant made possible through the ownership of the copyrights, and the right to royalties from the sale of books written by Attorney Daniel L. Frizzi, Jr. The book entitled An American Railroad Portrait: People, Places and Pultney was published in 1993 and outlines the railroad history of Belmont County. The second book written in 2003 for the Ohio Bicentennial Celebration is entitled Honoring Our Father: A Bicentennial Salute to Colonel John Hamm Sullivan, and is a biography of the man who first envisioned a modern community known as Bellaire, Ohio. The books are available through the BHS Endowment Fund, and all sale proceeds go toward the Local History Grant to be offered each year to graduating seniors of Bellaire High School.
