I love your historical stories! You've obviously researched well, and the story is nicely written to maintain our interest. The photos add so much too.

What an interesting piece, Gail. And I agree with Carol, you certainly held my interest! The pictures are a great, addition.

Thanks Gail, I never thought of bricks as collectable's. That was very interesting. I'll be on the lookout from now on. K.L. Farnum

Collecting anything becomes a passion! I have many things that I like to have around me besides my wall of books. Which is one of my posts. I also collect colored glass bottles, antique canning jars, insects & rocks. If you liked this one you probably will like my post 'Landscaping With a Hobby'. Thanks, Gail

Hi Gail,
What an interesting article! From henceforth I'll never look at bricks the same way, but will see if any words or dates are on them. I especially enjoyed the old sepia photos accompanying your story, dating way back to 1910, as well as the pictures of the two churches.
Your writings are quite enjoyable and educational.
Blessings,
