Clemons, Licking County, Ohio

1920 Population - no records available

         Clemons was located on the New York Central Railroad (T&OC - Eastern Branch) between Alexandria and Granville, two miles south of Alexandria.  The Eastern Branch ran from Toledo to Thurston.
         Clemons was not even a village, but rather its reason for being was a source of water capable of filling the large water tank shown in the photo.  The building on the left was the pump house.  The small building beyond the tank was a telegraph station for an operator.  There’s also a siding, but no sign of the coal tipple.
