Knowing my (and my readers') general interest in architecture as well as the presidency, and perhaps my substantial time spent in Columbus, OH, visitor Ray writes:
I'm trying to do some research about a one of kind artifact that came out of the old Franklin County courthouse in Columbus, Ohio. I've enclosed a photo of the window, it was made in 1892 and was removed when the courthouse was demolished.
The architect was George Maetzel, who also built many other courthouses in the mid-west and I'm trying to research who made this window. There are similar windows made in the Madison County courthouse in London, Ohio and I'm guessing that they were made by the same person.
I'd appreciate any info you might have and would be grateful if you can point me in the right direction.

I am a resident of Columbus, OH. The architect you speak of was a very popular architect, indeed. George Maetzel's family's house is located at 165 Deshler Ave, in German Village. It hasn't been in the family since 1944, but the current owners have a profound knowledge of his work. The house is for sale at this moment. Go to 165Deshler.com, and look up the contact information. I hope this helps!
