A post office called Pisgah was established in 1843, and remained in operation until 1905.[4] The community was named for a hilltop church near the original town site, Pisgah meaning "peak" in Hebrew.[5]
gollark: Is this one of those things where you feel obligated to "believe" due to social pressures, but don't actually believe the religion strongly and want to avoid reminders of that?
gollark: Not ææææææ I must never mention religion.
gollark: Religion. Bad experiences with religion totally exist, but as far as I know they mostly make people, well, annoyed about the religion.
gollark: Consider. Poland's problems are partly down to people being wrong about things. What if they were *right* about them instead?
gollark: And more people being right is generally good.
