The quarrying industry boomed in the late 19th century in the area and Carlisle Township has it's share of them.  In this episode we are speaking with Chris Smith, one of the authors of the book "The Lost Quarry Industry of Indian Hollow and Willow Park - Grafton, Ohio."  This industry created hundreds of jobs and also helped drive the expansion of the railroads in the county as well.  Chris shares his expertise on the subject and gives us all details about how the quarries rose and fell, how they operated, and what remains that you can still see today.
