The Tallow Light

The Tallow Light is the quarterly historical journal of the Washington County Historical Society, dedicated to preserving and sharing the rich heritage of Washington County and the surrounding region. First published in 1968, the magazine has grown from a modest newsletter into a professionally produced publication featuring articles on local history, genealogy, historic sites, and regional culture. Distributed to society members and researchers, the Tallow Light serves as an important resource for documenting community stories, encouraging historical scholarship, and connecting readers with the people, places, and events that shaped Washington County’s past
