Bunnell Hill, Wyoming Co, PA

From "The Bunnell/Bonnell Newsletter," Published by Mr. William R. Austin, Laceyville, PA, Vol. IV, No. 4, 1 October 1990, Page 48:

"This picture was taken many years ago about 4 or 5 miles from our home. The sign was located on U. S. Route 6, the Roosevelt Highway, between Meshoppen and Laceyville, PA, overlooking the Susquehanna River. The road was rebuilt in the early 1960’s, a substantial cut was made on a new location, and the sign was never replaced. This picture was sub- mitted by Mrs. Ralph Bunnell, Kenmore, NY. I have a similar shot on a colored slide taken by my father-in-law.

Locally this stretch of the road is known as Keeney Heights. Bunnell Hill is usually thought of as comprising a network of county and town roads just to the north of the Highway.

The name honors several sons of Benjamin, CB300045, and Catharine (Barry) Bunnell who established farms on the Hill in the 1820’s."
