Haigler Trivia Question

Can anyone tell where there is a marker showing how high the 1935 Flood waters were on the river north of Haigler?

If you find it, send an email to the blog editor and a picture if you have one.

    It is located at the Northwest corner of where the old Haigler well house stood. (That well house has been torn down). When the county widen the road Marion Douglass took a transit and moved the stone so it wasn't in the way of the widen road. It would be a little ways to the north half of the distance from the railroad tracks to the bridge, on the east side of the road.

    CALVIN IS RIGHT. THIS MARKER STOOD ABOUT 4 FEET IN HEIGHT AT THE OLD WELL HOUSE, IF ONE CAN VISUALIZE, THIS WAS A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF FLOOD WATER MOVING FAST DOWN STREAM, NOT JUST STANDING WATER.

    I remember the '35 flood marker when I was a youngster. I used to hunt on the river and frequented the old monument often. Glad to know it still exists.
