Description
Cottage Grove Historian Steve Williamson presents his inquiry into the whereabouts of the final resting place of the real McCoy Cottage Grove Eccentric "Bohemia Sharp."
Sharp, well educated and trained as a civil engineer, hung about the Bohemia Mining District, doing assays and acquiring the moniker "Bohemia".
He later moved down to the Creek that was to take his name and survived the Hermit lifestyle, receiving the occasional guest in his long red underwear. In his old age he moved to town and was sent to Salem where the mystery of his final disappearance begins. Williamson will reveal his research in picking up the trail to his body As usual History Pub will feature Trivia, 50/50 raffle, Fun, fellowship, and an informative talk all with the ambiance of the Axe and Fiddle. History Pubs are sponsored and presented by Cottage Grove Partners in History
