This is a tough one. One, I can’t get the books I’d like to have to do the research and two, there is nothing in the stack of about 10 books that I have.
This house was about half way into the section but I could reach it with my long lens. Of course I wasn’t happy with the closer shots. While I’ll never turn down an opportunity to take a photo of an old house, it wasn’t why I was in the area.
This land is recorded to be acquired for the first time in 1898. It was then sold in 1901, 1902, 1906, 1907, 1909, 1911, 1917, 1919, 1923 and then to the current family (different owners within the same family name) in 1948. I would imagine it was a nice place to farm with a creek close by for watering animals and the home is set a little higher on the land.
I wish I could share more, but I can’t.
