Other Information

Photo 1 is an enlarged inset view from Photo 2.

The Penn Pilot program was used to determine the location of where this barn once stood. On photo 3 the barn is highlighted in yellow. The other two buildings near the barn, as shown in photo 2, are circled in red. The house, shown in photo 2 is hidden in the trees. The blue circle on photo 3 is the location of the house. Photo 4 (Google satellite image) shows the house circled in blue, and no longer concealed by the trees. Muskrat Run running horizontally and connecting directly into US-422, in Photo 3 now turns southeast and extends on down parallel to US-422 before connecting into the highway. Photo 5, (Google street view) shows the house which is still existing. In Photo 4 the red pin marks the location where the Mail Pouch barn once stood. The pin was used to determine the address and the coordinates.
