We had many happy summer afternoons at Pee Wee's Nest. That picture looks like it was before the wooden dam was built. I wonder how it got the name?

From the History of Clearfield Co., Pennsylvania 1887 by Lewis Cass Aldrich page 58

 

"A short distance above the place where William Bloom settled, and at the point called the "pee wee's nest," there lived the family of Robert Cresswell.  They were poor, and had a large number of children.  Cresswell died after a few years, and the balance of the family moved to Huntingdon.  Robert Cresswell's funeral was the first that occurred in the county."

 

This is the oldest cemetery in the area, and it is still actively selling plots.

This covered bridge was located next to Lezzer Lumber Co.

 

If anyone has any of these I would be interested in purchasing them.
