}}Sugartit (formerly known as Pleasant Ridge and later as Gunpowder in the 1920s){{efn|"according to The Cincinnati Enquirer, "it had the name of Pleasant Ridge as shown on Lake's 1883 Atlas. It was later called Gunpowder and the area is so designated in John Uri Lloyd's book, 'Felix Moses, Beloved Jew.'"[2]}}[3]The community no longer exists, and it is now essentially a part of the outer Florence metropolitan area.[2] EtymologyAccording to one account, the community received the name Sugartit because the local men would go to its general store during the winter months, when less farm work was needed, and return home late for dinner; their wives would remark that they "had to have a sugartit at the store".[3] HistoryIn 1883, when the community was named Pleasant Ridge, amenities and services included a blacksmith, a general store/paint store, the Pleasant Ridge School, a steam saw and grist mill. During the time it was named Gunpowder in the 1920s and onward, the community had a post office and general store and a blacksmith shop. Both ceased to exist sometime after the mid 1900s. In the mid 1960s, few businesses existed, with the Sugartit Asphalt Company and Haines Oil being the only remaining businesses. Today, the Sugartit area, which "is located on the fringes of the Florence metropolitan area", has several businesses and amenities on Route 42, such as fast food restaurants, a gas station, a car wash, banks, apartments, a body shop, hardware, a church, a pub and other establishments. Sugartit never became an incorporated town. Notes{{notelist}}References1. ^{{cite gnis|504705|Sugartit}}
