Mid Ohio Scottish Heritage Association Meeting


      Anna Ellsworth provided entertainment for the Mid Ohio Scottish Heritage Association meeting by playing her Lyon & Healy Style 100 Harp. She is a student of Jude Mollenhauer, principal harpist with the Columbus Symphony Orchestra. Jude was a student of Salzedo.

Ms. Ellsworth's grandfather served as minister at a nearby Presbyterian church for many years where several MOSHA members attend.

At the business meeting, plans were updated for Tartan Day. The membership also voted to make a donation to an endowment named after Dr. Andrew Turner who was a member of MOSHA and from Clan Lamont. This endowment provides scholarships to harpers.

The membership also discussed the future of the organization which, like many ethnic heritage organizations, faces a declining membership.
