dunnies
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.

Re: dunnies
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.)
