Photo 54-MHU-31

Abie's Country Store and a Sohio service station, southwest corner of Rt 250 and Peru-Olena Rd, Olena. There was also an Obie's Tavern listed here at times, perhaps it was the building just to the left. It is attached to the store. The store looks about the same today, the gas station is gone.

See 54-MHU-25 for Obie's Tavern.

This was not Obies my grandparents owned obies it was north of the intersection more

My grandparent's, Olive and Leland Johnson, owned the Sohio filling station. The attached building was a home where they lived while they owned the Sohio store.
