The barn, other structures and the site configuration are all clearly visible in Historic Aerials' imagery (1980). The distance measurement tool was used to obtain the decimal coordinates for the Mail Pouch barn. These coordinates were input to the Google map program and the red pin on Photo 6 is the location where the Mail Pouch barn once stoor.
