This goes out to the entire list, but especially Allison Fredrickson
(because I know there are files there done by local high school history classes
that investigated various places in the county).
I'm looking for a list of old neighborhood names in the area just outside
the original Jeffersonville city limits. I know the towns of Claysburg and
Port Fulton turned into neighborhoods within the city limits, for example.
I'm most keenly interested in the land as you move east from
Jeffersonville. I've been told by older family members that the area around Park
Place
Methodist church used to be called something like "The Sandhill Flats"
I'm fascinated by the label on an old map that shows something called
"Brickhouse Pond" just east of where Parkview Middle School is located. As a
child/teen I remember that as a swampy area with a footpath running on either
side of it. We used it as a shortcut to Ewing Lane pool. There's a wiki
that notes it as a seasonal pond
http://wikimapia.org/19387278/Brick-House-Pond but I thought it was "fixed"
after the nearby newer subdivisions flooded
a couple of times.
