Some of our communities go back hundreds of years--well just barely. Some of the history connects with what we're taught in schools, like Meriwether Lewis of Lewis and Clark. Some of it supplements our knowledge of history with new details, like the waterfalls named for Andrew Jackson near the home of his good friend John Gordon.
