2020: GRANTSVILLE SKY-VIEW FROM THE AIR - Part One

(01/01/2026)
2020: GRANTSVILLE SKY-VIEW FROM THE AIR - Part One The Hur Herald has been recording the life and times of Calhoun for 25 years, including thousands of photographs across the 280 square miles. Thanks to Dan Kemper, a historian with roots in the county, and his high-tech drone, he has already photographed the Bethlehem Church and cemetery and Calhoun Park on the Herald.

Kemper has photographed dozens of pictures of Grantsville, to be published in several installments.
