History & local legend
Memorytown USA in Monroe County was a Pocono attraction designed around an earlier America, with a blacksmith shop, country store and small boats on a pond. Stories from its guest lodgings described an older, pale-faced woman wearing gray and sitting quietly with her sewing. Some people remembered gloves in her hands; others said she was knitting or making a scarf.
Outside, guests spoke of seeing children on a swing set, then finding that no swings stood where the children had appeared.
