Farnsy's Ohio TagOrama

[dyrtybyrd]

In keeping with the cemetery theme, here's the new tag:

This headstone is located in a small gated cemetery on a "valley road" with the same name as a big-box retailer of consumer electronics. Across the street(not directly, but very, very close) is a Protestant church whose name contains the road name and the denomination of the church. The denomination is NOT Lutheran, Baptist, Presbyterian, Methodist, Episcopalian, Adventist, Pentecostal or Quaker, but has been around for more than 500 years.

The county where this cemetery sits was created in March, 1808.

There are 6 counties that were created in March 1808. Hate to ask for add'l clue but I don't want to pull a "Neil" and get a wrong tag!

NIce tagging to both of you!

Schweitzer Cemetery, across from the Moravian Church on Best Buy Valley Road. Er....., I mean Frys Valley Road, Tuscarawas County (Founded March 15th, 1808).
I believe Meef referred to one of these as a "pity tag." I'll take it.

Thanks. I was surprised to learn how many Ohio counties were founded in 1808 (thinking it had to be Wayne County; It's not) It took some googling but I found it. Looking like a hard rains gonna fall so I guess I'll get to some of that stuff that shall remain unnamed but helps keep me in tires and fuel.

The self admitted stick figure romancer will know. Hope I didn't break any tagOrama rules or trigger anyone's sensitivities with that.

Nevermind.

Nice tag McTacticool

Same county. While Meefzah is away, the inmates will play; in his back yard, literally.


The cemetery has the same name as the winning side of the war the monument depicts.

Have you ever been north of southern Ohio?

Thanks. Prior to today I had no idea frys.com (or whatever) existed.
It looked familiar, had to do a little mental research on what "valley's" I had been on since having the bike. Frys Valley, was one of my first rides I think.

Very nice job, McTacticool!

Fry's is a bigger deal out west, but they do have stores in quite a few states. I think Indiana may have the closest store to us.

It just so happened that both tags I put up today were in counties created in March, 1808. So, I thought it only prudent to include that information as a clue.

Thanks guys.
I couldn't locate a Best Buy Valley Road or a B&H Valley Road. I would have sworn that was on another nearby back road called Dutch Valley Road, but the Dutch Emporium for Surplus Electronics Megastore just didn't have a ring to it....
When I thought it might be Frys Valley, I googled Frys Electronics and found it existed. I grabbed the boy & we went after it.

Thanks! He loves the bike. Both kids fight over who gets to ride to practice on the motorcycle.
I gotta find time to get over to Cinnci and meet up with Imaposer and pick up some kid riding gear & a smaller helmet I hope fits him better.
Picked up a nice jacket for my daughter in the FM the other day.
I don't like going too far with either of them until I get them squared away with gear.
Hope all goes well for your family in the future.

I've got a HJC x-small full face helmet (black) you can have for free. My girls used it when they were younger. Just pm me if you want it and we'll make arrangements for pick up.

Great picture by the way!
