A Major Road

— A Series of Four Stones —

Passing this point in the eighteen hundreds
was a major road. It was a more direct route
from Delaware than the more indirect #36 to
this point. Here it was a four corner crossing
the Atkinson Lane and the lane leading north to
one of the McClure plantations. The Jones and
Smith farms. Just south where there is another
marker was the Wirtz Atkinson farm complex and
farther south was a farm and some dwelling
places including a log school house. This
Atkinson lane also connected with the Owen
plantation complex. Just south of this location
in the adjoining field was an orchard that
originated with plantings of the famous John
Chapman or "Johnny Appleseed" who was on
occasion a guest of the McClure family. This
orchard was removed around 1917 and 1918 as it
was no longer particularly productive and the
land was thought to be needed for cropping
