Other/historical names associated with this locality:
Hamburg, Vanderhoof, Sayre
A group of abandoned quarries along Crystal Springs Road that worked the Franklin Marble for lime. Dunn (1995) states that they date to at least 1868. They are now surrounded by a golf course and residential housing. Coordinates are for the name-sake quarry. The other historic names likely apply to the immediately-adjacent quarries, but not sure which. The Windsor Quarry is across Crystal Springs Road to the west of the main complex.
