Interestingly, Olympia Brown attended Antioch College, located at 39°48′00″N which is almost perfectly aligned with Waconda Springs, located at 39.4983° N.
Look what's right next to Antioch College. Orators Mound at 39°48′16″N. In 1908, forty-one different earthworks were known in Greene County.[2] One of these is located atop the cliffs near a large natural spring called the "Yellow Spring", close to the village of Yellow Springs.
The village takes its name from a nearby natural spring whose waters are rich in iron, leaving a yellowish-orange coloring on the rocks. Now included within the nearby Glen Helen Nature Preserve,[19] in the mid-19th century, it became the center of a resort. In this period, many individuals traveled to areas of such springs, believing the waters had medicinal benefits.
I wonder if there is yet another connection with the name Glen Helen. The Waconda Springs were flooded by the construction of the Glen Elder dam. The Glen Elder dam was constructed in November 1964 and Glen Helen was designated a US National Landmark in 1965.
