Other Information

Photo 1 is an enlarged inset view from Photo 2.

The Mail Pouch barn is clearly visible in Historic Aerials' imagery (1983). The distance measurement tool was used to obtain the decimal coordinates for the barn. The coordinates were input to the Google map program and the red pin on Photo 7 is the location where the Mail Pouch barn once stood. The coordinates were used to determine the address for the entry.

the roof of the small building in Photo 6 is visible at the rear of the Mail Pouch barn in Photos 1 & 2.
