I bowed that rail last year. I saw the edge of a 1933 double eagle gold piece stuck under the rail. I guess I don't know my own strength sometimes. :D

Correct.

Slide 5--1975--Herbert Payne of Whiting. A legendary charcoaler.

Yes, good call. Apple Pie Hill. I don't have a lot more of photos with buildings. I'm starting to think it might be good to start asking some old timers for photos to scan.

Guy, I had cropped the photo, but now in looking at the entire photo, I realize I left off an important clue:

Slide 4--1973--Apple Pie Hill

I have now labeled the photo.

I almost said Hampton furnace because of the gun. Was that about the payroll robbery you were alluding to?

So, why is it historic?

Give a clue. Is it within 2.5 miles as the crow flies of the intersection of 563 and Savoy Blvd?

Guy...along the Oswego cranberry bogs just below Lake Oswego?

No, I can see that is a cranberry bog. Look at the slight depression.

No Terry, not there.

Thanks for the tips 46'r. I did scan them all already on the available scanner loaned to me, but I'll try the cloth on some and rescan if it will help. Guy, neither of those locations are on the slide. I know one or two gentleman who often post to this site that should be able to nail it down...

Really good research. I always smile when I see the name "Uriah". It is such a fanciful name. Brings to mind a guy that is out there on the edge.

Slide 3--1974--Wells Mills

Very good on the Sim Place Guy. I was looking in Hog Wallow like the slide said and could not make it happen. The key was the buildings by the reservoir. I'll have to dig deep to see if I can stump you.

Slide #2--1977. This one was mismarked as Hog Wallow. I needed to know for sure where it is, and that took a long time. They must have had alcohol on that flight.

And you would be correct sir!

Slide #1--1976 Friendship in the distance.
