The City of Salem, Ohio
Salem, Ohio was founded by Zadok Street and John Straughan (Strawn) on April 30, 1806. The word "Salem" means 'peace' and comes from the term 'Jerusalem'. Many of the early townspeople were Quakers. Salem was the site of the Western Headquarters for the Anti-Slavery Association, which published THE ANTI-SLAVERY BUGLE. In 1850, Ohio's first Women's Rights Convention was held in Salem, the second such convention in the United States.
