What’s in a The town christened Alliance was formed in 1850 from the union of three villages — Williamsport, Freedom and Liberty. Because of the merging of the three unique villages, the town became known as Alliance, a word that means union or partnership. The village of Mount Union joined in 1889. Some believe that Alliance’s name came from “The Crossing,” a popular railroad intersection in the city. Two major railroad lines, the Ohio and Pennsylvania lines, crossed there. The name could reflect the merging of two lines. Alliance’s botanical nickname didn’t come around until 1959, when the Ohio Legislature recognized the city as the Carnation City. The scarlet carnation was chosen as Ohio’s state flower in 1904, as the cultivator of the red blossom was an Alliance native. Local doctor, horticulturist and politician Dr. Levi Lamborn propagated the flower from French seedlings in 1886. Later, he opposed future president William McKinley for a seat representing the 18th Congressional District. It is said that before each debate, Lamborn presented McKinley with a
boutonniere adorned with a scarlet carnation. McKinley began to refer to the flower as a good luck symbol and, as president, often wore a scarlet boutonniere and decorated his desk with scarlet, blossom-filled vases. On Sept. 6, 1901, just moments after removing the famous flower from his lapel, McKinley was greeting a line of people at an exposition in Buffalo, N.Y., when he was struck by an assassin’s bullet. Legend says that McKinley removed the carnation to give it to a young admirer. He died eight days later.
