Found a weird local history site while looking up my street name
I was trying to figure out why my street is called 'Cedar' when there aren't any cedars around. I ended up on some old town forum from 2008 that said it was named after a guy's dog in the 1920s. The whole site was just scanned photos of old maps and typed-up stories from people who lived here. It felt like a real find, not something an app would ever show me. Has anyone else dug up something cool about their own neighborhood this way?

Was the dog at least named Cedar?

That's actually a great find. Did the site mention what kind of dog it was, or just that it was the guy's pet?
