Other Information

The barn and the small building just northeast of the barn are clearly visible in Historic Aerials' imagery (1972). 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 where the barn once stood. The address for this entry was based on the coodinates.

Photo 5 is a Google street view (June 2023) looking in at the site which is now all grown over.
