A hidden, well-worn nine-foot clay lane led straight to Bluff Ridge Burying Ground - worn so deep the earth remembers but no deed, easement, or map ever did. Forty-eight burials over 122 years list the route simply as "hollow road"; who built and why it was erased from every record is the question at the center of this episode.
In this episode, we trace the discovery from a septic evaluator’s percolation test to county records and century-spanning gravedigger logbooks, following the trail of a road maintained in secret for generations. What does the gap between physical memory and official paperwork reveal about the township and the families who used that lane?
