	Mid-Town Robbinsville, taken from about where the old Ingram Drugstore (now a lawyer's office) is located, facing south toward where Lynn's Restaurant is now located.
	Robbinsville, taken from lower Long Creek, about where the old Helen Ghormley house is now located, just across Long Creek from the County Library. The town was built on what was know as "Rhea Hill" at the time.
