Like Jan, many of my direct ancestors lived on Montana Mountain. In fact, at the church you reference herein, my last name appears on many of the headstones in the cemetery; Deremer / DeRemer. I used to drive Montana Mountain all of the time, fascinated by how the roads met one another and lead to the occasional abandoned house or nearly disappeared farmstead, the forest and the trees largely swallowing up what once was. Going to bookmark your page so I can continue to enjoy reading from you.<br /><br />Jennifer DeRemer<br />Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00670756556723709432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-960378910828021794.post-86392344272611604802015-04-22T12:37:31.951-04:002015-04-22T12:37:31.951-04:00Was far more interesting in the 50s & 60s.

As we've discovered with other stories, locations tend to reveal their histories in interesting ways once you're aware of them. We'll definitely keep everyone updated as we discover more.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02836481864368869692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-960378910828021794.post-67739964703576457692014-03-31T14:15:37.284-04:002014-03-31T14:15:37.284-04:00Interesting!

Your writing styles are identical! For a minute, I was thinking maybe HE wrote this article! LoL Great Job! <br /><br />But, I always seen that sign for Asbury & Montana out off of 57 & wondered what was back there myself. I would bet that a little investigative work into some of the names on that graveyard you came across would result in maybe finding a few more clues as to the history of the place. Good Luck, & keep these Articles commin! They're great! :-)Stuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06863692000257374846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-960378910828021794.post-49687295812594302212014-03-29T09:03:09.619-04:002014-03-29T09:03:09.619-04:00If you had stayed to the left and taken Angen Rd. ...If you had stayed to the left and taken Angen Rd. instead of going down Halfway House, you might have stumbled onto the Tibetan Buddhist Learning Center - http://www.labsum.org/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05349264268144623386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-960378910828021794.post-39716856816515475602014-03-28T13:24:28.017-04:002014-03-28T13:24:28.017-04:00Thank you for this posting.

On fall Sundays we often would take drives on Montana Mountain, which implies they were familiar roads to him. just saw leaves. He has also mentioned Indian ancestors from Mntana Mountain. I His family dates back to the late 1700s (at least) in that area. We have tracked some names but no definite documented links.Dr. Kathleen Wickhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13301264858048248173noreply@blogger.com
