Today The Theodore Burr Society received grant awards for 2 more National Register of Historic Places signs from the Pomeroy Foundation in the total amount of $4,200. The bridges that will receive signs are Dellville and New Germantown in Perry County. (BTW, we did clear it with the PA National Historic Preservation Society who confirmed that although it has been rebuilt Dellville will remain on the register!) With these 2 awards we have received funding for 16 signs for 14 PA covered bridges!
