NOTES
Additional Information:2016- "West of the farmhouse (AHI #230935) is the gabled, banked dairy barn. The barn possesses a stone rubble foundation and vertical board siding. It appears to date to ca. 1900. A ca. 1950 gothic-arched addition with attached ca. 1950 gabled concrete block shed is appended to the west end ofthe barn. Three attached concrete silos are also present: two date to ca. 1910 (east); the third appears to date to ca. 1950 (south). A gabled machine shed/garage with vertical board siding stands south (to the rear) of the farmhouse. It may date to ca. 1935, but appears to have been altered with vertical board siding. A ca. 1990 gabled metal pole barn is set to the east. The photos fully illustrate the property, so a site plan has not been included."
