Our History from the Beginning

Forest Knolls Grocery (From the Collection of Newall Snyder) According to Jim Staley, who contributed another picture of this location, the post office was also housed here. This building, which was destroyed by fire 60 years ago, stood just to the left of the bridge into Forest Knolls over Papermill Creek where there is today a fenced empty lot.
