The town was first laid out by John Adam Heller in December of 1819.
Because of the German heritage of its founder and inhabitants,
the town was first known as "Heller Shtettle"

Spent my entire Hour in this area

Jeff sure researches his hunts well, doesn't he? I was supposed to come down into your area this past Sunday, Jeff ( farmhouse in Pitman ) but circumstances prevented it. If things work out and the house provides some good targets, maybe I can get the fields too and will shoot you a pm to see if you want to give it a try. Thanks for the great pics and sharing your hunt.

well frustration on hitting the same sites over and over, and no living soul
in site there for years, I went on my old permission.
from the rear, the signs are only dusk to dawn signs anyway
