Why this spot

1896-1949 Ukrainian immigrant church village

Village founded by Ukrainian immigrants near the Green River, whose St. Demetrius Ukrainian Catholic Church of 1905-06 served hundreds of settlers, along with an Orthodox church, two groceries and a post office. A religious split and remoteness drained it, and by 1949 both churches had been moved away.View source →
