Do you know Snuff Ridge or Fostoria?

Snuff Ridge sounds very familiar, but I can't place it. I think I remember Fostoria. It's between Cleveland and Conroe, isn't it?

I know what you mean about things disappearing. We moved from Houston to just the other side of Splendora in 1970, and it was a loooong drive through the country to get there.

When I went back in the 90's, it was like one big city. Houston ran into Humble, which ran into Porter and continued into New Caney.

The only way you knew which city you were in was by reading the signs.

Snuff Ridge is on the Plum Grove road.

Fostoria was a saw mill town and the company owned every building in the town.
A union moved in and the workers went on strike so the company evicted everybody and had all of the buildings moved or torn down including the saw mill.

I was wrong on Snuff Ridge, it is Snuff Hollow.
