Which reminds me - I've been searching for information about cedar oil stills. There were lots of these operations in the late 1800s and 1900s, but I have not been able to find out how they worked. I remember there was a cedar oil operation on Route 15 in Walden years ago, but I don't know who ran it. I remember seeing it next to the road in a cedar swamp area. I'm sure there are many people who know about this process, but I haven't found anyone yet. I could not find anything on line, either. Please let me know if you have any knowledge about the process or know someone who might. Email me at janebrowncabot@gmail.com. Yes, it's for the West Danville history book! Write what you know and we'll certainly give you due credit in the book.
