Hayes (1822-1893), a Republican, served as governor of Ohio from 1868 to 1872 and again from 1876 to 1877, when he resigned to assume the position of President of the United States. As governor, Hayes oversaw Ohio’s ratification of the 15th Amendment to the U. S. Constitution, which granted all men the right to vote regardless of race. He also brought public attention to the dangers of the nearly unlimited power enjoyed by local authorities. In addition, Hayes focused on state geological and historical efforts.
