The Village of Pomeroy is the county seat of Meigs County, Ohio. In 2010 it had a population of 1,852.
I love this painting and sold it to a wonderful person in Ohio, but not a day goes by I don't miss it. I don't know why; it's just the spirit of the thing. It's really our Miles in tuxedo disguise.

Pomeroy, WA; this sign was originally installed in Boise, ID. Now part of David Webb's large private collection displayed at businesses in Pomeroy.
"Pomeroy's Juvenile Hour. WEEU. Bernie, program director. Photo by Pomeroy's."
Pomeroy's was a department store that had locations in Reading, Harrisburg, Wilkes-Barre, and other Pennsylvania cities. This real photo postcard, which shows the Reading store in the upper left-hand corner, was used to advertise Pomeroy's Juvenile Hour radio show, which debuted sometime in the 1930s. Various local radio stations carried the show, including WEEU in Reading and WHP in Harrisburg.
Pomeroy's ran ads for the Juvenile Hour in newspapers, too, as this excerpt from the Harrisburg Telegraph, Sept. 29, 1932, p. 8, demonstrates: "Pomeroy's, 'Harrisburg's Greatest Department Store,' Saturday, 9:30 a.m. You are invited to attend our first 'Juvenile Hour' radio broadcast direct from our broadcasting studio on the third floor. See and hear Harrisburg's future radio stars as they broadcast over radio station WHP. These performers are all between the ages of 2 and 12, and you'll marvel at their exhibition. If you are unable to attend the broadcast in person, tune in at 9:30 Saturday morning on station WHP and you'll get an hour of radio sunshine and happiness that will thrill you for a long time to come. Pomeroy's 'Juvenile Hour' will be on the air every Saturday morning, 9:30 to 10:30."

An old gas station in Pomeroy, Washington with a vintage Veltex sign and an old bus parked out front.
"At its high point in the ’60s, Boise-based Fletcher Oil Co. fielded more than 100 Veltex stations in Idaho and others in Oregon and Washington. Then came a new generation of family ownership, followed in 1969 by splitting up of the company into two units – one in California, which kept the Veltex name, and the other in Idaho and Oregon, which transitioned into marketing gasoline and other supplies under a variety of big oil company brands. The last of the Veltex stations in the Boise area, at Fifth and Main streets, closed in 1991." - IDAHO BUSINESS REVIEW

The castle was built in the late 15c by the Pomeroy family, replacing their unfortified manor house in the village. It stands on a limestone outcrop overlooking the Gatcombe Brook valley on three sides and a gatehouse defensive range to the east. The Pomeroys sold the castle to Edward Seymour, 1st Duke of Somerset (brother of Queen Jane) in 1547 whose successors built the Tudor mansion within the late medieval walls and it remained with the Seymour family until it was abandoned in the late 17c.
It is said to be haunted: READ ON !

Went out yesterday with the family to Berry Pomeroy castle, such a beautiful place to go, but was such a shame that the weather was so dreadful, I only managed to capture a few pics with the heavy downpour going on, but at least I managed to capture this, I personally think it turned out pretty nice, what do you think
Berry Pomeroy Castle, a Tudor mansion within the walls of an earlier castle, is near the village of Berry Pomeroy, in South Devon, England. It was built in the late 15th century by the Pomeroy family which had held the land since the 11th century. By 1547 the family was in financial difficulties and sold the lands to Edward Seymour, 1st Duke of Somerset. Apart from a short period of forfeit to the Crown after Edward's execution, the castle has remained in the Seymour family ever since, although it was abandoned in the late 17th century when the fourth baronet moved to Wiltshire.
After lying in ruins for a hundred years, in the 19th century the castle became celebrated as an example of the "picturesque", and it became a popular tourist attraction, a status which it retains today—aided by its reputation of being haunted. Between 1980 and 1996 the castle was subjected to extensive archaeological excavations that clarified much of its history and overturned previously held beliefs regarding its age and cause of destruction.
Berry Pomeroy Castle is located about a mile north-east of the village of Berry Pomeroy in South Devon. It occupies a limestone outcrop that overlooks the deep, wooded, narrow valley of the Gatcombe Brook.
There are a number of legends associated with the castle, and according to the English Heritage guidebook, it "is reputed to be one of the most haunted castles in Britain." Two female ghosts are said to haunt the castle: the White Lady, and the Blue Lady. The Blue Lady is said to beckon for help from passers-by, luring them to her tower. If they go to her, it is said they fall to their death. She is thought to have been the daughter of a Norman lord and is said to wander the dungeons mourning the loss of her baby, which she murdered as it was sired by her own father. The White Lady, said to be the spirit of Margaret Pomeroy, is claimed to haunt the dungeons, having been imprisoned there by her sister, Eleanor, who was jealous of her beauty. Their stories often blur together.
Built in 1848, this courthouse was designed by S. S. Bergin as a Greek Revival-style structure, and originally consisted of only the central portion of the current building, and was patterned after the Scioto County Courthouse. The courthouse was passed by John Hunt Morgan’s raiding party during the United States Civil War in 1863, and, after the capture of Morgan and his men, was utilized as a temporary prison for them by Union forces in Meigs County before being sent to the Ohio State Penitentiary and larger prison facilities in Cincinnati. In 1870-1877, the courthouse was renovated in the Italianate style, and had two wings added on either side of the original courthouse. The building features a painted brick exterior, arched two-over-two windows with decorative window hoods, a circular cupola with a domed roof, a bracketed cornice, hipped roof, a two-story front portico with a balcony, exterior staircases, and two large doric columns on stone piers, a front pediment, and steel windows at two rear wings added in the early 20th Century. The building is a contributing structure in the Pomeroy Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
