Other Information

There have been two barns on this site. Photos 1-5 show the original barn, which was existing at least through Feb. 1987. All photos beginning with Photo 6 show the newer barn with the masonry foundation. It is not know what happened to the original barn in the interim of Feb. 1987 to April 1988. It may have been damaged or destroyed by wind or fire during that period or simply razed and removed and replaced with the newer barn.
