The most recent Mystery Photo is this building, the Hog Mountain “Courthouse,” where for years people voted. Today people no longer vote here, but vote in four different locations of the precinct now. Hog Mountain Precinct A is at Rock Springs United Methodist Church; Precinct B is at Prospect United Methodist Church; Precinct C is at North Metro Baptist Church; and Precinct D is at Woodward Mill Elementary School.
Recognizing this building as a former voting precinct was Richard Lux of Trickum, who said: “This is the former Hog Mountain district courthouse. It was one of the smallest voting precincts in Gwinnett County. They were still voting there in the 1980s.” Bill Baughman of Snellville also recognized it as a voting place. Most, if not all, similar buildings in the less populated precincts have since been torn down.”
The photo came from Raleigh Perry of Buford, who said: “The accoutrements in the building were a wood fed pot-bellied stove, what we called an Army Stove, and a bench outside (seen under the window on the left.”
Heavy pre-World War II bike-for-two can be yours
This is a German pre-World War II and very heavy bicycle for two. It’s fun to ride with a second person helping peddle. It has no gears, and it is fitted with a smooth rumble seat for a toddler. It hasn’t been ridden in ages, and its tires are flat. It’s on sale for the best offer. For details about this bicycle, call 202 834 3808. Available for pick-up (you will really need a “pick-up”) in Gwinnett.
