How the name was read

Each atlas was set in type by a different hand and scanned decades later, so the same establishment comes back spelled differently. Every reading below was produced by the recogniser from the sheets; none was corrected or invented. They are published so a search for any of them finds this page.

Named in the 1884 county history

The history of Tuscarawas County was published 8 years before the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

Pleasant Valley Methodist Episcopal Church is located on School Lot 22, in the southeast part of the township. The society is an old one, and among the early prominent members were James Gordon, Jacob Wolf and Levi Williams. A small log church was first built, on Gordon's Hill, a half mile to the north, but about 1855 the present site of the church was selected and a frame erected. The church membership is about sixty, and Rev. J. Weaver is pastor.

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Tuscarawas County, Ohio, held by the Library of Congress. Sanborn atlases published before 1930 are in the public domain. Only names that at least three of four independent readings agreed on are published, and no spelling has been corrected: what appears here is what the recogniser returned from the ink.
