The Cookerow's - they lived off Taylortown Rd - the ruins of their house is still there. The ruins are protected as it is part of a county Park - Pyramid Mountain. It is in Montville Township - the Montville section. I have a picture of their house and there are lots of stories about them such as the wife used to walk into town to do laundry for people. Tough stock !!! We would love to know more about them (such as why they moved here etc) and I will dig through our files and get you some information. We have a pot from the house that is in the township museum - a tad rusty.
