NORTH MANCHESTER — On Monday, Jan. 14, the North Manchester Historical Society will be having its annual meeting. Following the meeting, there will be a showing of the documentary film “The Story of the Black Swamp.”

The program will be held at Timbercrest Retirement Center, 2201 East St., North Manchester at 6:30 p.m. The meeting and movie night is open to the public and free of charge.

“The Story of the Black Swamp” details how one of the largest wetlands in Ohio was created by glaciers and is now almost completely gone. The Great Black Swamp covered a massive area of land, and went as far west as Fort Wayne.
