Other Information

Photo 25 was taken by the wife of the photographer who was in the process of taking Photos 23 & 24.

Kenneth Cunningham reported on Facebook on July 2, 2021 "This barn was built in 1890 and still in the original family. It is unfortunate the foundations have deteriorated to the point of becoming unsafe as a lot of early barns have. It has been sold and will be dismantled. The Mail Pouch sign and timbers will be numbered and put into storage for future display or use."

Photo 26 is a view of the barn being demolished on Oct. 26, 2021.

Where to find it

*GONE* (razed and removed) OH Rt. 7 northeast of US Rt. 33 by about 2.5 miles. The barn was on the right side of the highway headed northeast. The MP sign faced north. One end. Black.
