Pomeroy Building Boom Signals Rebirth After Fires
The article chronicles rapid reconstruction in Pomeroy after the 1861 and 1866 fires. New brick walls rise, the court-house and offices sprout multiple storefronts, and several three story brick structures promise extensive dry goods groceries and hardware operations. It notes the Gottic modernized home style and a surge in commerce with banks, lodges, and professional spaces filling the burnt district.
