The origins of Marion can be traced back to the War of 1812 when Jacob Foos, a surveyor for General Harrison’s company discovered a spring at the top of a hill and established a well there, which was named “Jacob’s Well”. This well was located near what is now Marion Towers on Delaware Ave. The town of Marion was platted north of Jacob’s Well in 1822 by Alexander Holmes and Eber Baker; Marion County was established in 1824.
Best known as the hometown and burial location of President Warren G. Harding and First Lady Florence Harding, Marion was one of Ohio's major industrial centers until the 1970s. Products of the Marion Steam Shovel Company (later Marion Power Shovel) built the Panama Canal and in the 1960s, NASA contracted with Power Shovel to construct the crawler-transporters that moved the assembled Saturn V rockets, used by Project Apollo, to the launch pad. In 1911 80% of the nation’s steam shovel and heavy duty earth moving equipment was manufactured in Marion, Ohio.
