A Bluffton chronology from 1961
In 1961, Bluffton was celebrating its centennial and Paul Diller created this chronology beginning in 1831 for the location of his funeral home: Gobel homestead, Gobel General Store, home of D.L. Gobel, first postmaster of Shannon Crogan's Corner, Judge Eaton Homestead, Eat on Grove, D.S. Flick residence, Iron Lantern Inn, Paul Diller Funeral Home. Now that's a "Bluffton Shuffle!" MORE on Paul Diller HERE.
