Other Information

The Mail Pouch barn, house, other buildings and the site configuration are clearly visible in Historic Aeirals' imagery (1967). The distance measurement tool was used and the decimal coordinates for the center of the Mail Pouch barn were obtained. The coordinates were input to the Google map program and the red pin on Photo 8 is the exact location where the Mail Pouch barn once stood. The House and the small 1-car garage are the only buildings still remaining on the site See Photo 7).

Where to find it
