Thanks for that extra tidbit' of info! One of the things I like is how it shows what things originally were called and then what they are as of 1966. Like.... Gaymont - Estate of Gays, Pritchards. Now Potomac Conference of Seventh Day Adventists. Bessie Weller School on part of this estate. Have a good day!
