About Sach's

Sachs covered bridge is still standing today in Adams County Pennsylvania. It was built in 1852 by a builder named David Stoner. It is 100 feet long and has been closed to traffic since 1968. This is the only bridge that is standing in Adam's County that has a Town Lattice Truss.

This bridge was damaged in a flood on June 1996 and the bridge was washed 100 yards downstream. It was repaired and raised 3 feet to prevent that from happening again.

While this is a beautiful bridge that links us to our past, the thing that attracts most people to this bridge is that is has a history of being haunted. It is told that 3 confederate soldiers deserted their unit during the Civil War. Once they were captured they were hung from Sachs Covered bridge.

People who take photos of the inside of the bridge get orbs on their developed photos. And it's been reported that they feel a cold spot inside the bridge.

Is this bridge really haunted from Civil War soldiers? You will have to visit it to find out. It is located in Adams County, Pennsylvania. It is owned by the state and is in a park. You can still walk across the covered bridge and experience it for yourself. You can see photos of the bridge at FMY Photos. It is worth taking a trip to see this bridge from our past and maybe visit a few ghosts.

  • Website is now live

    I have worked all weekend on the website. But I'm happy to say that its now live. It's not totally finished but it's about 80% done. What we changed. - We changed hosting companies. The photos are no longer hosted by Smugmug. This is now going to allow us to have more pages indexed in Google, and you will be able to find more of the images in Google Image search. - We added some extra links such as adsense, and advertisers that you may be interested in. We don't collect any money from the photos, we are hoping that this way will give us enough money to pay for hosting and upkeep on the sites. - We have the site set up so it loads faster. You don't have to click through 20 pages to get the photo that you want. We have them all loaded on one page now. So far with testing it seems to load fast with DSL or Cable Modem. We haven't tested it with dial up connections. - We made less categories and galleries. We think it will be less confusing with less categories. The nice thing is now you can see ALL the galleries on EVERY page. So you don't have to go back to the home page to choose a different gallery.- Quick overview of photos. If you Want to see all the bridges we have in the county, you now can do it from one page. If you want to see a bigger version of that photo, or read more about that photo you can click on the photo and get the bigger photo and the history of the bridge or the photo. -Quick Links Across the Top. These take you to the most popular galleries. Notice: This will pull up all the categories with the galleries and will load slower while all the smaller photos load on the page. -Shopping at Ebay from the site: you can now click on the link at the left to shop at ebay for items containing bridges, mills, and barns. It will take you to Ebay to purchase but I did all the searching and will only bring in the most up to date items for you. This will change hourly. - About the Password Protected Pages: When at smugmug I had family sections that Grandpap took of the immediate family photos. These were hid pretty well there I still have these on the new site, but unless your family you won't be able to see them. There are MANY unflattering photos of our family shown there, trust me your not missing much. Whats left to do:- I want to organize the photos by years within the counties. So when you look at the zillions of photos of Ebenezer Covered Bridge, you can see how it changed over the years. and not see it being moved after you see it already set up at the new location. -I want to get more information on the photos, or link to Lost Bridges.org for all the information on the bridge itself. I personally feel that I will be linking to Lost Bridges because all the research that they have on the bridges, I could never duplicate it on my site. - Finish uploading and databasing the rest of the photos. This will be done over the next few weeks. It has been a long weekend for me, All the photos needed uploaded again to the new server, then all the information needed typed in again. So I'm going to take a few days off away from the site and work my full time job, then work on it again next weekend.- Correct spelling errors and other errors I made over the weekend. Mostly I probably have a zillion spelling errors. Sometimes its because I simply can't spell, or it could be because I wasn't able to read well enough the information off the slide. But then - I can blame it on the keyboard... Which I think I will. All errors is because of the keyboard. :) Sometime this week Smugmug will be canceled. For me it's bitter-sweet. If it wasn't for that site, I would of never had all these photos organized the way that they are. I never had any problems with them, in fact I would highly recommend them to store photos. The reason that I moved them is for the fact that I make no money off this site, and I simply couldn't afford to host them there any longer. If you are looking for a site to host your photos, do consider SmugMug. You will not be unhappy at all. If you have a problem or a technical question they will respond to you in a matter of hours, not days like most places. I hope that you like the new site. I am very pleased with the way it turned out for being done so quick. I think it's much better layout and easier to navigate. If you would like to show some of the photos on your site, you can contact me at fmyphotos@gmail.com and I will work with you to get them to you. If you notice that all photos are now able to be saved to your computer, I am not even going to protect them from being downloaded at this time. But if you do snatch a picture from me, please at least give credit back to the site. Thanks!Judy www.fmyphotos.com - 13 months ago

  • Website Updating

    Over Thanksgiving day weekend I will be moving FMY Photos to a new host and it will have a new look! I hope to have it live by December 1st, with most of the photos move over by then. Today I started the long process, and Murphy's Law is right here with me today. Anything and Everything that could go wrong has. But I think I have it mostly figured out, and should be able to move right along with building the site this weekend. At the new site, I still have a link to Smugmug where the photos are still hosted at this time. It's just too expensive to keep them there, so I have no choice but to move them if I want to still show them. So if you try to get to FMY PHOTOS and see a new design, or a half-done website this is why. It's still a work in progress. And Right now I am working full time, so it's going to take about a week to move everything over to the new site. Unfortunately I have no choice but to have the site live while I am doing this. So you may see some pretty weird things while I am fixing things. But it will all be worth it.www.fmyphotos.com - 14 months ago

  • Photos will be used in Documentry

    I am in contact with someone who wants to use some of the photos for a documentry. I am excited that his photos will be in film! I can hardly wait. They will start out with the Washington County PA photoe which there are allot of them, and then move on to other counties. I will update you when the documentry is finished and will give links!www.fmyphotos.com - 2 years ago
