Onwards, ever onwards....

Definitely needs to be seen in large...

Another fun fact about Lewisburg:

"The street names that run East and West are a local urban mystery. St. George, St. Catherine, and St. Louis etc. appear to be named for Saints.

However, since Ludwig (Lewis) Derr [the town's founder] was a Lutheran and did not pay homage to Catholic saints, this is unlikely. Rather, the street names are more likely named for Derr's family members.

The German word for street is Strasse (Straße, abbreviated St). At the time, street names were pronounced as Strasse Mary or Strasse George.

Later, when signs were made to note the street names, the abbreviation for Strasse was allowed to remain, but the English abbreviation was redundantly added to the signs."

You can see one of these street signs in the bottom left photo.The North/South streets are simply numbered 1st to 22nd.
