Swiss Americans are Americans of Swiss descent. Swiss emigration to America predates the formation of the United States, notably in connection with the persecution of Anabaptism during the Swiss Reformation and the formation of the Amish community. In the 19th century, there was substantial immigration of Swiss farmers, who preferred rural settlements in the Midwest. Swiss immigration diminished after 1930, although limited immigration continues. The number of Americans of Swiss descent is nearly one million. The Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs reported the permanent residency of Swiss nationals in the United States as 80,218 in 2015.

Rising Sun, Ohio County, Indiana Courthouse

historyinyourownbackyard.com

The Rising Sun Courthouse was built in 1845 and is the oldest continuously used courthouse in the State of Indiana. When the courthouse was built there were no inside bathrooms, only outhouses behind the building and there were no interior hallways. To get from one office to another you had to exit the building and walk down to the next door. The last window on either side of the courthouse was originally a doorway.

Special thanks to the staff at the Ohio County Courthouse for allowing us access to the building and a big thanks to Bobby Keith for his wealth of information on the history of the courthouse.

We would also like to thank our model who narrated the film, Erika Padilla. Erika does many types of modeling projects and can be reached at:
