Junior Order Room
The Junior Order United Mechanics bid of $25,000 in 1896 was the birth of the Junior Home in Tiffin. The 177 acre site on the Sandusky River was near and dear to our “Junior Home Kids.” This orphanage was home to over 5,000 children from twenty-eight states before closing in 1944. This site is now the home of the Tiffin Developmental Center.
