Photographs which inspired the
Hemlock Run Series

Church of the Wildwood

Former schoolhouse, built in 1905.
No electricity, no running water.
It must have been chilly in that outhouse!
Aunt LaVata was the schoolmarm.
She met her true love, Crumline Bartlett, here.

Can’t wait for summer to
make S’mores and burn pine needles!

Aunt LaVata’s Cottage

Ophelia Cornell stayed here. 
It’s just a short walk to the old Baker cabin along Rocky Bottom Road.

Old Baker Cabin

Sonny stayed here …
the mannequin on the porch
kept him company! Ha Ha!

“Closed for Hanging”

Wild Will Spangles and Peg Leg Lucy
were previous tenants!

Inspired lively dinner conversation when Sonny and Nick entertained Ophelia and Grace.

Rocky Bottom Tavern

The hub of Rocky Bottom’s social life.
Loggers and tanners tried their luck at cards after a hard day’s work.

The Original Bar

Sonny could almost smell the whiskey
and see the card sharks
with aces up their sleeves!

Rocky Bottom Jail

Conveniently located
a stone’s throw from the tavern!

Peg Leg Lucy’s Cabin

The rusted bedsprings
are still in the back room!
