History in
a Pecan Shell
Now known as dispersed
rural community, Pleasant Ridge was just walking distance to the
county seat which probably hampered prospects of growth. It was
formed sometime after the Civil War and seems to have peaked in the
1930s when it had two stores, a school and several residences. After
the school merged with those in Carthage
after WWII,
the thin identity Pleasant Ridge had held got even thinner. |
