Dreeses Bridge

Just this past summer, this old covered bridge was remodeled and repaired. While it is no longer in use as a bridge, it is now an historic attraction to our area. It is even on a web page of covered bridges of Snyder County.

(When was the bridge built, by what builder, and at what cost? Answer next month.)

Answer to Last Month

What did Charles Freed do to help Beavertown? Well, during WWII, Beavertown, like most towns and cities in the U. S. A., had an Honor Roll of the towns persons serving in the Armed Forces.

Charles Freed had a vacant house with a side yard that faced right on Market Street, and he offered this yard to place our lovely red, white, and blue Honor Roll in.
