Other Information

Photo 1 is an enlarged inset view from Photo 2.

The Ohio Dept. of Transportation aerial images were researched by Rick Hentz, Aerial Image Curator for the Dept. The Vintage Aerial photos 1 & 2 showed only the east end of the barn with a Mail Pouch sign; however, Rick's research found that there was a Mail Pouch sign on the west end of the barn as well (Photo 4). Photos 5-10 are aerial photos of the site showing the site changes over the years. Note that by June 1977 the two residences noted in photos 2 & 5 were already gone. Photo 11 is a Google Earth photo provided for coordination with the other photos. Photos 10 & 11 show a structure which is actually a viewing platform. The site was incorporated into the Pickerel Creek Wildlife Area.

Where to find it

*GONE* (razed and removed) Along the north side of US-6 E, east of intersection with OH-510 by 1.3 miles. The barn was on the left side of the highway headed east. Two Mail Pouch signs, one on each end, facing east and west. Black backgrounds.
