Tillinghast and Harmon Golf Course, Lebanon, Oh.
Bret Lawrence:
Harmon, NY was developed by Clifford B. Harmon, who grew up in Lebanon, Ohio. Harmon Golf Course and Harmon Park appear to be a gift to the town of Lebanon from William Elmer Harmon, Clifford’s older brother. The golf course was formerly known as Harmon Hall Golf Club in the old golf guides.
Here is an interesting link on the Harmon’s.

Bill Shamleffer:
Since Harmon GC of Lebanon, Oh. is not listed in The Golf Course, does anyone know:
1. Who designed the original 5 holes in 1912;
2. When was it expanded to 9 holes,
3. and who designed the additional 4 holes?
Karl Jensen:
Bill, The Harmon GC in Lebanon, OH is not as old as you think. Perhaps if you went to the Lebanon government offices they would have a record in their meeting minutes that would reveal more information.

Karl,
The Warren County Historical Society is quite good and is located in Lebanon. I will check there and see what I can find.
