Hotel in Falls Creek

[fadedgenes]

Does anyone know the location of The Hotel Emery, Harry S. Emery, proprietor that was located in Falls Creek ca. 1900 - 1910 (+/-).   Is the building still standing?

The Hotel Emery is long gone along with most all historic buildings in Falls Creek.

 

...With the construction of a two-story brick store and residence built by Mr. J. L. Reed to spur grown, other homes quickly followed and the town was named Evergreen. A large, four-story hotel, the Lamontague, was erected at the corner of Main and First Streets and provided porches with easy seats from which to view the crowded streets each night. Until it burned down nearly a dozen years later, the Lamontague was the center of activity for the community. Two other hotels served the town during its boom days, the Emory on Main Street and the Casey House on Taylor Avenue. It was not until 1890 that streets were laid out and tree stumps finally cleared from the land. A few houses and stores stood along the street lines, but in rainy weather, rubber boats were required to reach them...

Thank you.  Harry Schuyler Emery was a brother of my great-grandfather who, with his father, managed hotels in Brookville.

Where is the Gunsmoke in all of that history?

Where is the Gunsmoke in all of that history?

Right on the Clfd Cty/Jef Cty line - part of it was actually in each county.

Hardly, the county line is on the other side of the building that housed Boyer's Pool Hall.
