snowman Pillar of the Community United States 1840 Posts	Posted 04/21/2009 2:37 pm Wow. Not too long ago I had a couple of friends get married in a church that has been in use since 1681. I wonder what's under the floorboards there? Report this Post to the Staff

jbuck Moderator United States 187702 Posts	Posted 04/21/2009 3:54 pm There is a really old church that dates from the early 19th century not far from the house. I am also wondering about some of those old churches in the downtown area.

Davest Valued Member United States 325 Posts	Posted 04/21/2009 4:42 pm while growing up, well, getting older anyway. I went to a Parochial school in Pennsylvania that had grates over the window wells, I used to take the coins that fell into the wells out and spend them on candy. Like Log Cabin Fudge and Bonomo Turkish Taffy, MalloCups all that stuff. That was in the 50s, the school/church is still there, but they don't sell candy like that anymore.

Davest Valued Member United States 325 Posts	Posted 04/21/2009 6:54 pm no floorboards will make it a lot easier to dig. When do you want to start? Report this Post to the Staff
