Lead Hill Time Line 

As a gift to our Sugarloaf Group Roger Logan undertook the writing of the history of Sugarloaf Township. The historically accurate document took over two years and was completed and presented to our group two weeks before Roger's passing. Dr Don Crosswhite then added life to the Timeline by creating 45 wonderful videos filled with beautiful scenery and Sugarloaf pictures. Dr. Crosswhite also searched and obtained the latest technology adding a touch
the year type system to view the Videos.
