Griswold, President of the Worthington Board of Education in 1880 certifies the transfer of custody of an oil portrait of Governor Thomas Worthington from Rufus King of Cincinnati, Ohio to the "citizens of Worthington". The town Worthington is believed to be named for Thomas Worthington, the federal land agent who oriented James Kilbourne to the Ohio territory. The portrait remained in custody of Worthington Schools until 1974, when custody was transfered to the Worthington Historical Society.
