Good content. Thank you.
I've been enjoying your videos. I used to live in Central City and was always interested in the history of Somerset County.
Excellent video.
Hello Richard this is your cousin Bill Miller I was on Facebook looking up you name and came across these wonderful videos of you. It's been a long time but I see you are doing well, Linda and I are doing well getting older but still kicking. Good luck in all your endeavors.
Yes, please do part 2
I had hoped you would also cover the Deeter Family Cemetery in Deeters Gap. It has one headstone that is rather interesting. It is my understanding there had been Indian attacks on the original homestead. In addition to farming and some side endeavors, John also built a combination grist/sawmill on Deeter's Run. The remnants of the dam can still be found. in addition to where he quarried stone to carve the millstones he sold throughout the area.
Thank for all your video’s. For they are so informative and very interesting. Please keep them coming.
Another great piece of local history A+
Great job! So enjoy hearing the history. Thank you for your research and sharing it.
