2011.2.382Description
Sledding on Town Hill north of Carmichaels, Greene County, Pennsylvania.
To the far left are two church steeples. Left to right these are, the New Providence Church located on George Street and the Cumberland Presbyterian Church (now known as the Greene Valley Presbyterian Church) on Greene Street. The latter building was destroyed 3 July 1902 and a new one took its place.
Based on these buildings and others that do or do not appear in the photo, local genealogist and historian Shelley (McMinn) Anderson believes this image is circa 1895-1901.
Identified as Carmichaels by Thad Swestyn, 2013; building analysis added by Shelley (McMinn) Anderson, 2015.
