Zoar. The name is taken from I do not know where. It is not an uguly or offensive name but I am glad to don't get my mail there.Came with the homestead act and went with the drought. Should have made it. They were close to a lot of pretty good development for those days. They had a couple of banks and some pretty large mercantile stores. There is no mention of a school at Zoar. That wouldntlook good on a report card anyhow. Submitted by: Samuel W McWhorter
