翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Roll, Indiana ： ウィキペディア英語版 Roll, Indiana Roll (pronounced "r-awl', rhymes with “fall”) is an unincorporated American community in Washington Township, Blackford County, Indiana.〔The correct pronunciation of “Roll” can be confirmed by any native of Blackford County. See also the Dundee subsection under Early History and the footnote to stories by Roll family members.〕 Nearly all of the community's businesses have been closed for years. Although the Blackford County Historical Society lists Roll as a ghost town, homes are still maintained in the area, and it is still listed as a populated place by the U.S. Geological Survey.〔Blackford County Historical Society's "Ghost Towns in Blackford County, Indiana".〕 The rural community is located on Indiana State Road 18, about one mile west of its intersection with Indiana State Road 3. During the 1890s, Roll participated in the Indiana Gas Boom, as oil and gas wells were located nearby. Roll's E.C. Storms Natural Gas Company was one of Blackford County's many gas companies that existed during that time.〔Blatchley, (p. 405 ).〕 The Gas Boom gradually ended during the beginning of the 20th century, and many small communities throughout the region never recovered. In addition, the quality of automobiles and roads improved over the following decades — indirectly contributing to the decline of many small communities as consumers drove to larger cities.〔''A History of Blackford County...,'' p. 130.〕 As the largest community in Washington Township, Roll fared better than smaller communities in the area (such as Silas) because Roll had a better school and more merchants. As transportation improved even more, Roll merchants also lost business to larger communities. After the gas boom prosperity declined, agriculture again ascended to be the most important economic factor in Roll's corner of Blackford County. Unfortunately, prosperity in agriculture is not always reflected in nearby towns such as Roll, and many small towns in the "Corn Belt" continue to decline in size and affluence. ==History== In the early 19th century, much of what would become the state of Indiana was still frequented by native Indian tribes. The Miami tribe was the most powerful group of Indians in the region, and they were known to visit what would become northern Blackford County. Other tribes that visited the area were the Potawatomi and Delaware.〔See Biographical and historical record of Jay and Blackford Counties, page 715.〕 Non-native settlers began arriving in what would become Blackford County during the 1830s.〔See Goodrich and Tuttle’s “An Illustrated History of the State of Indiana”, page 550. (Indiana )〕 Blackford County was established in 1838 and 1839, as a section of swampland split from the west side of Jay County. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Roll, Indiana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
