The Ohio Dept of Transportation aerial photo archives were used to assist in locating this barn

Photo 1 is a view of the west end of the barn taken in 1956. At that time the sign had a black background and there was no Mail Pouch sign on the south side of the barn.

Photos 2 & 3 show that by 1975 the west end of the barn had been repainted and the backgound color changed to red.

Photos 4 & 5 show that sometime between 1956 and 1964 a Mail Pouch sign with a black background had been painted on the south side of the barn.

Photos 6 & 7 show that by 1981 the barn's condition was in serious decline.

Photo 8 shows that by 1986 the barn was gone and the site of the barn cleared. The house and other outbuildings remain.

Photo 9 shows the location of the barn in relation to US-40 (E Pike Rd) and a section of the old red brick portion of old US-40 (red line).

Photo 10. Yellow circle shows the former location of the Mail Pouch barn and the red line marks the old red brick portion of old US-40.

Photo 11 is a 1956 image showing the barn circled in yellow and the old red brick portion of old US-40 shown with the red line. This is provided for coordination with Photo 12 (Google satellite image) In Photo 12 the red pin marks the location of where the barn once stood. This pin was used to develop the address and the coordinates. Note in Photo 12, a recent Googe satellite image (ca. 2022) that the site is now completely overgrown.
