Over our 200 plus years, we have had some citizens who deserve an especial recognition. All inductees selected or to be selected are considered of equal value. Therefore, the Beavertown News is selecting our first Hall of Fame member, Mr. Moses Specht. Just a few of his diverse contributions are railroad builder, hotel keeper, store keeper, postmaster, master builder, iron foundry operator, master gunsmith, and much much more! A real contributor to Beavertown!

(What two churches did Moses build in Beavertown? Answer next month.)

Answer to Last Month

The first Beavertown High School was located where Barry Hackenberg lives now. The next location was in one of the rooms of the Borough Building.

The final location was on the second floor at the rear of where the Susquehanna Bank is now.

In the fall of 1928, BVHS became the high school for Adams Township, Beaver Township, Beavertown Borough, and Spring Township.

Then West Snyder and now Midd-West!
