Turbotville has, within its limits, quite a number of old people.  A count made the other day found thirteen who were eighty or more years old.  This is not a bad showing for a town that numbers about five hundred inhabitants"

  1. I have lived in the Turbotville area for 40 some years, always enjoyed your posts. I was very surprised to see a article about my great grandfather Frank Groner. My Mother said she had heard the story but did not ever hear that it was that serious.
