The Old Order Amish came from Ohio and arrived in southern Monroe County and northern Vernon County starting in 1966. They have grown to 300 families with a population of over 3,000. Hear about their unique way of life: courting, marriage, baptisms, weddings, funerals, schools, dress, German language, the Ordnung (set of rules for life), farm life, Amish manufacturing, auctions sales, horse and buggy transportation, community life, Church services, medical care, shunning, music, Amish newspapers, Rumspringa, and more. The Amish thrive, yet they avoid electricity, cars, modern appliances, and tractors in the field. This PowerPoint presentation goes behind the scenes to view the rich Amish culture.
