Not long after we started Painted Hills Dan Maxson pointed out that Coon Crossing was named after the Coon family. Who would have guessed? This was while crossing the old rr grade there. That led to him saying that the coliseum was the powerhouse for the trolley system.

Correct. The trolly tracks ran thru our farm. The house north.on the East side of the road had a sidewalk, ending by the mailbox. Set in the stone was the word "COON."...b
