Source of town name is questionable! Stepp-Wulf 01:05, 6 October 2006 (UTC).

[edit] History

Have done some digging around and put together a bit of a history based on citable sources. Still nothing concrete about the origins of the name, though. I removed the strange quote about the disputes about the naming of the foodstuff, having found a discussion of that on the Erie County fair site. I felt there was no point duplicating it here. -- Alucard (Dr.) | Talk 00:17, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
