Other Information

Photo 2 is an enlarged inset view from Photo 3.

The Mail Pouch barn, house and other buildings in the site configuration shown in Photos 3 & 4 are clearly visible in Historic Aerials' imagery dated 1983. The distance measurement tool was used to obtain the decimal coordinates of the barn. The coordinates were input to the Google map program and the red pin on Photo 6 is the exact location where the Mail Pouch barn once stood.

Where to find it

*GONE* (razed and removed) Along the southside of US-224 just east of the N. Main St. intersection, in Tocsin, by 0.2 mile. The barn was located at the southeast corner of the intersection of US-224 and CR N 600 E. There was a Mail Pouch sign on the north facing end and a Mail Pouch sign on the east facing side.
