This is not Grant County Indiana

This is Grant County, Indiana .My great grandparents parents and siblings have lived around the area of this bridge since the 1830,s bridge was built in 1879

I have not gotten a reply about the Matthews, Indiana bridge picture. It either is not the picture or it has been touched up.

This NOT Cumberland Bridge in Matthews Indiana

Upon further review the ruling on the field is overturned ...this IS Cumberland Bridge in Matthews Indiana.

My sister's home is right under the N in the picture you can see the black shutters on her kitchen windows.

Hi Rolland,
This is a beautiful area, does the area still look this way today?

They have a Covered Bridge Festival every year on the land shown at the bottom of this picture. There is a loved Park and the Cemetery is to the north of this area The bridge was completely restored in 1999 and is on the national register.
