Welcome to the Newto News for March of 2024. My name is Zack Cockfield, and my team and I created Newtomedia as a way for visitors or new residents to get information about a city. Each month we bring together resources that will update you on the history, amenities, culture, future opportunities and all other things inside a city that make it unique. We also hope to be a resource for connecting you with people and businesses that can help you live a better life. If you find our efforts useful, please click on the links to get more information!

Canton, Ohio has a rich history dating back to its founding in 1805. Originally settled by European immigrants and pioneers, the city quickly grew into a bustling hub of industry and commerce. In the early 19th century, Canton became known for its production of iron and steel, leading to the establishment of numerous factories and businesses. One of the city’s most notable contributions to American history was the founding of the Canton Professional Football team in 1920, now known as the legendary NFL team, the Canton Bulldogs. The team played a significant role in the development of professional football in the United States. Canton also has a strong connection to the presidency, as it is the birthplace of President William McKinley. The city is home to the McKinley National Memorial, where visitors can learn about the life and legacy of the 25th president of the United States. Today, Canton continues to thrive as a vibrant community with a rich cultural heritage and a strong sense of pride in its history.
