In 2011 I started a new series themed around the little country churches I grew up attending. This first site is a place we lay our families to rest. When the ground is dry there are some interesting stones to be seen. The oldest stone dates back to 1828 but the site may have been used earlier with unmarked plots. A brief history lesson about the ridge. With the help of his brothers, Benjamin Pomeroy blazed the first trail from town to what would later be called Pomeroy Ridge. Benjamin, his wife Elizabeth and their 3 small children were the first settlers in 1809. Over the following few years his siblings and their families would also join them building farms along the ridge. Over the years the generations of Pomeroys migrated to neighbouring Little Ridge. As you travel to the next in the series, you will see the most recent Pomeroy Ridge Schoolhouse on the east side of the road.
