Subject: RE: place names part two
In Oregon there is a graveled throughway out in the country on which a number of Amish families used to live. When I was growing up, its official title, complete with sign board, was 'Hook and Eye Lane' (The Amish don't use buttons). Nowadays, with the Amish long gone, it is called 'Dutch Lane'.
