Western Reserve Village preserves Valley history

Morning Journal/File

The church at the Western Reserve Village at the Canfield fairgrounds was originally designed during the 1800s and is currently used for wedding ceremonies by those in the community. The church and other village buildings are part of a nonprofit foundation which maintains and continues the village preservation efforts.

Standing at the south end of the Western Reserve Village is the church, which brings fulfillment to the dream of fair directors Bob Rose and C. Gilbert “Gib” James. The dream to preserve the Connecticut Western Reserve heritage of the Mahoning Valley by reconstructing a typical town began in 1965. The church was originally designed during the 1800s and is currently used for wedding ceremonies by those in the community. The church and other village buildings are part of a non-profit foundation which maintains and continues the village preservation efforts. The law office of Elisha Whittlesey was the first building moved to the village in 1965. Whittlesey was the nation’s first comptroller or controller of the U.S. Treasury under President Zachary Taylor. He also helped in the formation of the Mahoning County Agricultural Society, which is the founding organization of the Canfield Fair. Whittlesey’s law partner the Honorable Judge Eben Newton served as the agricultural society’s first president. The two men had their law office constructed in 1840 on Canfield’s Village Green. Another building, the log cabin, was relocated from Slater Road in Butler Township located in Columbiana County. Following the log cabin’s relocation, the railroad station, watchman’s tower and country store were added. The train station was once owned by the Erie Lackawanna Railroad Co., while the tower was moved from North Jackson. A steam locomotive, retired from Youngstown Sheet and Tube, was also moved to the train station along with a red caboose. Also found on the grounds, is an oneroom schoolhouse, built in 1900 at the corner of Leffingwell and Knauf Roads, in Ellsworth Township. Once the schoolhouse was permanently placed in 1967, the Beaver Branch Library was moved from North Lima

to the fairgrounds. In 1968, one of the first saw mills in Canfield was cut in half and reconstructed on the grounds, providing the village with a blacksmith shop. The office of Dr. Stewart G. Patton was added in 1972. Built in 1913, Dr. Patton worked out of the North Jackson private practice for 24 years. An old barn that once stood at the old Mahoning County Home on Herbert Road, Canfield, now stands at the village’s entrance, welcoming visitors into the past.

The barn is supported by beams held together by pins, typical of that era’s construction. Handmade bricks salvaged from another County Home building are used throughout the village. Completing the village are the restored Carriage Museum and gazebo. Visitors will notice that the entire village is laid out around an oval grassy area, also known as a commons, with each building facing each other. This setup, including the brick walkways lining the area, was typical of early American towns.

Even though she has spent 20 years in the music business, Martina McBride is experiencing a series of firsts with the release of her newest CD “Eleven.” The CD is her first with record company Republic Nashville and co-producer Byron Gallimore. She also wrote six of the album’s 11 songs, another first for the seasoned performer. Music has also been part of McBride’s life, dating back to her childhood in Sharon, Kan., when she performed with her father’s band, The Schiffters. It was after her 1987 marriage to sound engineer John McBride, that the future songstress found her way to Nashville. Soon the couple were traveling with Garth Brooks. John served on the sound crew, while Martina worked odd jobs including selling memorabilia. Eventually Brooks noticed the petite singer and offered her a chance to perform as his opening act if she could secure a record deal. After securing a deal with RCA she hit the road and released her debut album “The Time Has Come” in 1992. It took two years and two top 10 hits before McBride took country music by storm with her powerful single, “Independence Day,” won the Country Music Association (CMA) Video of the Year award in 1994. She followed up the single with her first number one, “Wild Angels,” and an induction into the Grand Ole Opry. Her status in country music took off again in 1999 when she was selected to perform for President Bill Clinton and won her first CMA Female Vocalist of the Year Award. In 2001, McBride crossed into the world of pop music with the singles “This One’s for the Girls” and “In My Daugh-

Martina McBride

ter’s Eyes” off her greatest hits album. She crossed into pop again with her current cover of Train’s hit “Marry Me.” McBride performed the single live on a recent award show with Train lead singer Pat Monahan. As her career continues to soar, McBride has earned her fair share of hardware, a total of four CMA Female Vocalist of the Year awards, three Academy of Country Music (ACM) Female Vocalist awards, and a Grammy. Her four Female Vocalist of the Year awards tie Reba McEntire for the most wins, and she holds the record for most consecutive nominations in that category. She was also awarded the 2003 Humanitarian of the Year award by the ACM’s.

Blake Shelton, Country’s ‘golden boy,’ returning to Canfield stage Making his return to the Canfield Fair stage is country music’s new golden boy, Blake Shelton. Shelton, who closed out the 2011 Canfield Fair, is currently all over America’s airwaves, both on the radio and television. Over the past year he has had three hit singles from his album “Red River Blue,” including “Honey Bee,” “God Gave Me You,” and “Drink on It.” He has also made a household name for himself to those who don’t listen to country music with his role on NBC’s The Voice. To top off the past year, he also took home six country music awards, including Male Vocalist of the Year from the Country Music Association. He had three consecutive singles reach number one, “Who Are You When I’m Not Looking,” “All About Tonight,” and “Hillbilly Bone.” To add to these accolades, was his induction into the Grand Ole Opry. Shelton is also among an elite group of performers, including Garth Brooks, Kenny Chesney and Alan Jackson, who have charted three records in a year. He has not had a single

peak outside the top 10 since 2007. Shelton left Ada, Okla., at 17, for Nashville after encouragement from Max Axton who wrote the Elvis Presley hit “Heartbreak Hotel.” After beating the pavement in Nashville, he met and worked with Bobby Braddock who wrote the George Jones classic “He Stopped Loving Her Today” and earned a deal on Giant Records. But the deal with Giant didn’t make Shelton a star, instead it took several years and a move to Warner Bros. It was his first album with Warner Bros. that featured the song that started it all, “Austin.” It was ballads like “Austin” and “The Baby” that put Shelton on the map, but, it was songs like “Hillbilly Bone” and “Some Beach” that showed his sense of humor. In May of 2011, Shelton married fellow country singer, Miranda Lambert. The couple became country’s ‘it’ couple and even dominated that year’s country music awards. The two have even been known to surprise fans with guest performances at each others concerts.

Over the past year Blake Shelton has had three hit singles from his album “Red River Blue.”

Scotty McCreery’s star rising He may be fresh out of high school, but Scotty McCreery is currently one of country music’s rising stars. McCreery will continue to gain fans as he tours the country with big name country acts, including Martina McBride. He captured his fan base while competing on and winning American Idol season 10. His victory over Lauren Alaina not only broke records for the number of votes cast, 122.4 million, but also made him the youngest male winner in the show’s history. McCreery wasn’t done leaving his mark in music history, just a week after taking home the American Idol prize, his debut single “I Love You This Big,” became the highest debut for a new artist’s first single on the Billboard Hot County Songs chart since 1984. “I Love You This Big” reached the Top 20 in just seven weeks and is one of the fastest-rising debut singles for a new country artist in history. For most kids McCreery’s age the biggest event they can think of is prom, but he had something a little bigger on his schedule, an appearance on the Grand Ole Opry. He also graced the stage during the CMA Music Fest, the “Today Show,” and “The Tonight Show” with Jay Leno. A fan of traditional country music singers,

Scotty McCreery

such as Conway Twitty, Hank Williams Sr. and Merle Haggard, McCreery merged that sound with that of new country for his debut album “Clear As Day.” Country music legends Roy Clark, Mel Tillis and Charley Pride have even given the teenage sensations some advice, ‘don’t change.’ McCreery has taken that advice to heart and the results have been fruitful.

The first fair was a formal occasion CANFIELD — The Mahoning County Agricultural and Horticultural Society, founded in Canfield in 1846, established its Grand Annual Fair to bring together the people and their products to compare notes and relate experiences. The first fair was held on the village green and included a small livestock show, a plowing contest and a horse race or two. Early fairs were attended primarily by gentlemen, who dressed for the occasion in suits and top hats or fedoras. Ladies, dressed in long skirts, highnecked blouses and bonnets, were relegated to gathering in the First Congregational Church building, where they displayed their homemade products and food preserves. When the original fairgrounds were established, they were small in area, and the buildings consisted of a few sheds. From time to time through the years, additional land

was purchased and better and more spacious buildings added. The Floral Hall was built in 1869, reportedly by the same man who built Canfield’s Old Courthouse Building. Other early fair buildings included a Music Hall and a Mechanics Hall. In the 163 years since the Canfield Fair was organized, great changes have taken place in Mahoning County. In 1846 it was almost entirely agricultural, while today it has become a thriving industrial and service-oriented community. As years went by, the fair reflected the times both in its displays and exhibits, as well as in society’s expressions of dress and decorum. The fairgrounds sit on 350 acres. People come in cars, motorhomes, pickup trucks, on motorcycles and on foot. Clothing is casual, comfortable, and probably

would have been considered quite daring 163 years ago. Today’s spacious grounds, ample free-parking area, high-quality displays, exhibits and attractions are a testimony to the Mahoning County Agricultural Society and to 163 years of progress and dedication to the Canfield Fair. What has remained unchanged over the decades is the spirit and heritage of that pioneering group at that first simple gathering in 1846. The legacy of the Canfield Fair is a willingness to share ideas, bring forth the best of the harvest each year, and to build the tradition of lifelong friendships. Today, the Canfield Fair is a trip to an art museum, an international entertainment event, a showcase of handcrafts and baked goods, a modern machinery bonanza, insight into farm animal life, a symphony of sounds, a gourmet’s delight and

Hard work has paid off for The Lost Trailers Since attracting the notice of country music legend Willie Nelson, The Lost Trailers have been working to make it big, and that work is beginning to pay off. The band has been spending the past three summers touring with Tim McGraw, Lady Antebellum, Montgomery Gentry, Jamey Johnson, and now Blake Shelton. Before playing in front of arena sized crowds, The Lost Trailers were nothing more than the high school band of

singer/songwriter/guitarist Stokes Nielson and lead singer/keyboardist Ryder Lee. Not to let a little thing like high school graduation break up the band, Nielson and Lee roomed together at Vanderbilt University. Eventually the duo moved from the recording studio to the stage, picking up bassist Andrew Nielson, Stokes Nielson’s brother; and drummer Jeff Potter. Guitarist Manny Medina joined shortly thereafter. The Lost Trailers big break came in

2000 when Nielson, then a Nashville area DJ, presented Nelson with the bands demo. Shortly after hearing the demo, Nelson invited the band to perform at his annual Fourth of July picnic. Even after performing on the request of Willie Nelson, the band had not settled on a name. The Lost Trailers comes from an inside joke, where the band had three trailers full of instruments and equipment stolen. Pursued by producer Blake Chancey, whose credits include projects with the Dixie Chicks, Waylon Jennings and Charlie Robison, The Lost Trailers eventually teamed with BNA Records and released their major label debut in 2006. They followed the debut up with the popular hit “Holler Back” in 2008. During this time the band snagged three American Country Music Award nominations and Stokes Nielson was one of the few outside songwriters on Zac Brown Band’s double platinum album, “The Foundation.”
