  • I know you might be thinking how did this place get the name of Intercourse? In the closing of this video I give you a few definitions that might just give a clue. Come along and hear the history of this 162 Year old building.

    What a wonderful lady and a great old building. I sure hope it does not ever get tore down. I hope the Town state or whoever does not let them. The foundation looks like it needs help soon. So much of the past is stored in that building. Would love to visit that area someday. Thank you for the video so wonderful to see.

    Great job John I've been right through this area many times was always on too tight of a schedule . I remember this building the Amish I was with told me some of it's history but this is awesome coverage of this town. I ask the Amish how the town got it's name but they were not sure. Now I know. Thank you.

    This is so true that the building would shake when all the belt was turning. My great-grandfather had a cabinet shop with the same design as the belts, and a couple of times with my grandfather would cut them on so we, the grandchildren, could see. They are still in business to this day, making custom cabinet and selling pre-fab cabinet. I have read the first fire department was organized in the furniture store in 1911 for this town.......Great Video John.....

    Hey John. Power way back would've been a waterwheel. Then steam engine. Then electric turbine, as technology advanced. Animal & wind power were options too. Ill bet the way the floor was patched from the basement, it was water driven origunally. She said the basement still gets wet. & yes, Amish still use oil lights.........Bath, Oh.

    That’s very interesting, they could have used Horse Wheel which the Horse is hooked to a harness then walks in a circle driving a Belt System in turn powering the Saws. That was a very common Grist Mill operation where there was not enough Water.
