The Highland County Historical Society is honoring the late Jean Wallis in a celebration of life at 2 p.m. Sunday, June 9 at the Hillsboro Global Methodist Church.
Throughout the years, Jean was the go-to source for every organization and local media outlet when it came to settling questions of local history. If she could not immediately resolve a question, she would painstakingly research the topic until a satisfactory answer could be found.
Jean Wallis, 90, who became the pre-eminent historian of Highland County, passed away Thursday, May 9, 2024, at the home of her daughter and son-in-law in Loveland.
