While we know our northern friends may not feel it, in the South, Spring is
here. So we thought we'd share a few of our gardening sites appropriate
for this time of the year. Along with gardening, there's grilling, and getting
ready to diet so that you can fit back into that bathing suit this summer!
Dry Grove Township was so named from a grove in the
southwestern part. This grove was long known as Dry Grove. Who first gave it
the name, we do not know. All the groves in the county were named early. The
reason for calling this Dry Grove may probably be found in the fact that it
is on high ground, without. any stream of water running through it. The
township bears the same name that was given it at the first organization in
1857. It lies in the northwestern part of the county, and includes one
Congressional town. It is bounded on the north by
White Oak, on the east by Normal, on the south by Dale, and on the west
by Danvers Township. It is known as Town 24 north, Range 1 east of the Third
Principal Meridian. As will be seen by this the Third Principal Meridian
forms its western boundary, separating it from Danvers Township.
