Actually, you would be surprised how much history this area has. In fact Jan Nichols cataloged it in two volumes several years ago, I am sure the Library has these books and encourage you to check them out.
I had local history many moons ago with Mr. Thompson and it was one of my favorite classes and I know that Mr. Kilmer has a wealth of information on the subject and I am sure does a wonderful job with the class now. There are a lot of wonderful local history teachers at the school now and wonder which one of them will put their mark on the class after Mr. Kilmer retires.
