i was born and grew up in johnstown, south fork area. spent the first 25 years of my life in this area. that was many years ago. i recall a place outside of johnstown named dunnies. their speciality was bbq'd ham on a hard roll. doe anyone recall this place? is it still there. the last time i was there was in the late 1940's. thanks for any information provided.

Buildings still there but there not . They've been closed about 40 years if my memory serves me .
thanks for the information dan. i have looked everywhere on the internet with no success. your help is really appreciated. as i get older i seem to go back in time looking for things from my youth. you have been a great help,
heckler.
Dunnies is now an antique shop,,,has been for several years. The original Dunnies has been closed for MANY years. I grew up in that area.Quote:

Welllllll, it's a long time after the question was asked but I can answer if anyone is still interested. Dunnies is no longer open. It's been closed since the 1960's as far as I know. It's a residence now. It's located on the left side of RT 271 South of Johnstown about 3/4 of a mile past the Menoher Heights fire hall and about a half mile before Pickin' Chicken (if you're goin' back that far in time.)
