Bog was barrier between two cities / Bowen, Jerry [818] [WAYITWAS-2008-818]
I left off in my last column noting that when Fairfield became the County Seat in 1858, Fairfield was still struggling to become the more prominent city, even though it had the increased influence of being the county seat.

Life flowed on at the Fairfield waterworks / Bowen, Jerry [570] [WAYITWAS-2005-570]
Before I get into the meat of this column, I need to correct a mistake I made in the first segment. In the column I spelled Ms. Venning's middle name as "Lucille." It is spelled "Lucile."
