Other Information

Photo 1 is an enlarged inset view from Photo 2.

The barn is clearly visible in Historic Aerials' imagery (1956). The distance measurement tool was used to obtain the decimal coordinates. The coordinates were input to the Google map program and on Photo 8 the red pin is the exact location where the barn once stood.

Photo 3 (1976) shows that the mail Pouch sign was overpainted by that date. The subsequent photos 4-6 are provided for coordination.

Photo 7 is a view looking in at the site. The house seen in Photos 2-6 is the only building remaining on the site.
Where to find it

*GONE* (razed and removed) Along the north side of E 500 S (IN-22) east of the intrsection with I-69 by 0.3 mile. The Mail Pouch sign faced east. One end. Red Background.
