River John made his mark on Forsyth County
River John Conrad's story is really the American story of a man who sets out for places unknown, settles down and, through his own efforts, realizes his dream of achieving success. It's the story of our nation, with men and families heading West to settle a farm or ranch, attracting yet others to build a community and, finally, maybe a Chicago, or a Denver, or a San Francisco.
Yet, there was a time, 200 years ago, when our western Forsyth County was "out west," 50 years and more before there was a West out there.
