LETTER TRANSCRIPTION November 14, 2006 Dear Ruth Frantz, I thought you would like to know: Ashe Road was named after the Ashe Family who owned a farm on that Road. The Ashe name ends with an "e". I'm sorry we don't have much history to pass on to you. Hopefully, someone in Sugar Grove can remember the family and add more information. I'm glad the photos have a home - the original album was in tatters and there was no protection for the photos if left in that old album I had to put them into protective plastic pockets.
