Hi! Here's another article that may be of some interest. Quaker Bottom is in Rome Township, Lawrence County, Ohio. - Jean Griesan Colorado QUAKER BOTTOM, O., Aug. 31, 1869. Ed. Journal: - Thinking that perhaps a word descriptive of this sequestered retreat might not be inadmissible, we have acted accordingly. Situated upon the north bank of the Ohio river, nearly twenty miles above the city of Ironton, and occupying a gently undulating tract of country of near five miles in length and one in breadth, is what has long been known as Quaker Bottom. Its land is equal in fertility, perhaps, to any in the country, is divided into farms of from fifty to one hundred and fifty acres each, and owned by that class of sturdy farmers whose honesty and perseverance are only equaled by their hospitality and generosity. The Post-office is at Proctorsville, directly opposite Guyandotte. This is a very good location for a town - which will be, some day - but at present there seems to be a lack of enterprise among the citizens. Our M. E. Church is situated at Rome, two miles from Proctorsville, (latterly called Grant Town) and one mile from the river. The Baptist Church is in the upper end of the Bottom, in the settlement of Beulah. There is not a dram-shop in the whole Bottom; and as a Lodge of the Good Templars has been organized at Rome, and although its numbers are few, they say it is as permanent as the "everlasting hills," we trust there never will be one. In conclusion, Quaker Bottom can boast of two towns, two doctors, two lawyers, many base ball celebritites, and is composed of as moral and intelligent a community as you ever find. SEMPER OBSERVOUR.
