Friday - Why the Printer Won't Work

The Story of Towaco

Hat tip to Christina Renfer and Terry Cavanaugh    

A TOWACO RESIDENT GAVE THIS WRITING TO ME AS A MATTER OF INTEREST.  AT THE NOVEMBER 21st TCA MEETING,  MEMBER DAVE VIRKLER READ THE NARRATIVE TO THE MEMBERSHIP AND CAPTIVATED THEIR INTEREST. WHEN READING, PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT IT WAS WRITTEN IN 1951 AND THE REFERENCES ARE OF THAT TIME.  TRY TO IDENTIFY THE PRESENT DAY LOCATIONS. 

 

THANK YOU – CHRISTINA RENFER

 

 

We think this was written by Mrs. Walter Read (Gertrude) circ 1951. She lived on the hill behind the post office.
